Description

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation long-baseline experiment exploiting the liquid argon TPC technology. DUNE will have sensitivity to low energy physics searches, such as the detection of supernova and solar neutrinos. DUNE will consist of four modules of 70-kton liquid argon mass in total, placed 1.5 km underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in the USA. These modules are being designed considering the specific requirements of the low energy physics searches. As a result, DUNE will have a unique sensitivity for the detection of electron neutrinos from a core-collapse supernova burst, and solar and diffuse supernova background neutrinos can also be detected.
