Description
ESSnuSB is a design study for a long-baseline neutrino experiment to precisely measure the CP violation in the leptonic sector, at the second neutrino oscillation maximum, using a beam driven by the uniquely powerful ESS linear accelerator. The ESSnuSBplus design study programme, which is an extension phase of the ESSnuSB project, aims in designing two new facilities, a Low Energy nuSTORM and a Low Energy Monitored Neutrino Beam to use them to precisely measure the neutrino-nucleus cross-section in the energy range of 0.2 – 0.6 GeV, where the experimental data is very scarce. In addition, a new target station and a new water Cherenkov near-near detector will be designed to measure cross sections and serve to explore the sterile neutrino physics.
An overall status of the project will be presented together with the ESSnuSB+ additions.
