Description

DUNE is a next-generation, long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment with the primary aim of determining the neutrino mass ordering and the CP violation phase in the leptonic sector.
The SAND detector at the DUNE Near Detector complex is designed to perform on-axis beam monitoring, constrain systematic uncertainties in the oscillation analysis and provide precision neutrino physics measurements. SAND consists of a superconducting magnet, an electromagnetic calorimeter, a novel liquid Argon detector, and a modular low-density target/tracker system equipped with different nuclear targets.
In this talk, the current status of the detector and its physics program will be presented.
