Description
The poor knowledge of neutrino cross sections at the GeV scale is projected to be responsible for some of the leading sources of uncertainty in next-generation oscillation experiments. Building on the ideas and R&D from ENUBET and NuTAG, we present a proposal for the nuSCOPE experiment (see arXiv:2503.21589). nuSCOPE is a high-precision, short-baseline neutrino experiment at CERN that employs neutrino monitoring and tagging. Instrumentation placed along the beamline and inside the decay tunnel enables percent-level flux monitoring and a neutrino energy determination that is independent of final-state particle reconstruction at the neutrino detector. In this talk, we present the beamline design, proposed instrumentation technologies, results from prototyping efforts, and scenarios for implementation at CERN. A talk proposed in WG2 will cover the physics reach of the experiment.
