CEvNS school

 

The nation-wide strike on Monday March 27th is heavily affecting the public transportation. This is relevant for the school participant who have to travel to Garching from the city center on Monday morning (and enentually back to Munich in the evening). Please fill out the shared document and indicate your hotel location. This helps us to organize alternative travel options for you. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CAMfBPf5dOcbCS9XNZf9pUWvcxVnUPVBfcltzOWb76s/edit?usp=sharing

 

The CEvNS-Neutrino School will be held from March 27 - 29, 2023, at the Technical University of Munich, aimed at student and postdoctoral researchers working on experimental and theoretical low-energy neutrino physics. The goal is to gain a profound understanding of neutrino physics, especially CEvNS, neutrino sources, different detector concepts, and backgrounds. No pre-knowledge is needed for participation. The program will be divided into two parts; lectures and hands-on projects.

Discussion 

    

We will have four fundamental lectures on 

  • Neutrino Theory and CEvNS (D. Aristizabal, USM)
  • Dectortor Concepts in low-energy neutrino physics (V. Wagner, TUM) 
  • Background (D. Markoff, NCCU)
  • Neutrino Sources (T. Lasserre, CEA Paris-Saclay/ TUM) 

The projects are designed to gain in-sight into experimental work (hardware and data analysis) and theoretical work. Students can sign up for the following projects (depending on the number of participants more projects may be added): 

  • hands on cryogenic detectors - how to build a cryo CEvNS detector (Johannes Rothe, TUM, and N. Schermer, TUM) 
  • hands on data analysis - example analysis of data with a cryogenic detector (Martin Stahlberg, MPP, and M. Kaznacheeva, TUM) 
  • hands on theory - how to calculate the CEvNS cross-section (D. Aristizaba, USM, and L. Strigari, TAMU) 

On the third day of the school, all projects will be presented and discussed. The goal is to go from building an experiment towards a physics measurement. 

 

PhD school will be organized together with the Munich School of Neutrinos and Dark Matter (MONA).

 

The lectures will take place at the lecture hall 3 (Hörsaal 3) of the physics department (
