Description


I will present the current status of the experiment GanESS and the GaP proptotype, an effort to detect Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEνNS) at the European Spallation Source (ESS), utilizing high-pressure Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) as the detection technology. The use of high-pressure noble gas TPCs allows for very good energy resolution and sub-keV thresholds, essential for observing the tiny nuclear recoils expected from CEνNS events. We discuss the detector design, expected performance, and initial commissioning results.
