Magnificent CEvNS School
The CEvNS Neutrino School will be held before the Magnificent CEvNS workshop, from Thursday June 5 to Saturday June 7, 2025, at the Brazilian Centre for Physics Research (CBPF). The school is 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 detection concepts, and data analysis. No pre-knowledge is needed for participation. The programme will be divided into two parts: lectures and hands-on projects.

School lectures programme:
- Neutrino theory - Diego Aristizabal
- Neutrino detection at low energies - Raimund Strauss
- Statistics and data analysis for rare events - Dario Rodrigues
The projects are designed to gain insight into experimental work in hardware and data analysis and theoretical work in calculations. On the final day of the school, the projects will be presented and discussed. Students can choose one of the following projects (the list is preliminary and may be updated):
- CEvNS cross-section calculation - Diego Aristizabal
- Data analysis and exclusion limits - Dario Rodrigues
- Constraining BSM models with CEvNS data - Yuber Perez-Gonzalez
The CEvNS Neutrino School lectures and hands-on activities will take place in the lecture halls and labs of the Brazilian Centre for Physics Research (CBPF).
