Description
The potential for a new Europe-based flagship neutrino experiment opens with dismantling the EDF Chooz-A nuclear reactor complex (up to 50,000m3 of underground volume) hosting the SuperChooz experiment. The new site is ~1km from the N4-nuclear reactors of the EDF Chooz-B. This shallow location is expected to be possible thanks to the novel LiquidO technology, heralding the detection of both reactor and solar neutrinos with unprecedented active background rejection. The physics programme encompasses some of the world's most precise measurements (i.e. θ13⊕Δm2 and θ12⊕δm2) while probing, with unique discovery potential, a few of the most insightful building-block symmetries of the Standard Model. In late 2022, CNRS+EDF agreed on the technical feasibility study, called the "SuperChooz Pathfinder" era, where the AntiMatter-OTech project, funded by the EU-EIC and UKRI, provides technological demonstrator and physics explorations, as led by the CLOUD collaboration.
