Description

Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) is a
neutral-current process in which a neutrino scatters off an entire
nucleus, depositing a tiny recoil energy. The process is important in
core-collapse supernovae and also presents an opportunity for
detection of a burst of core-collapse supernova neutrinos in
low-threshold detectors designed for dark matter detection. This talk
prospects for supernova burst detection via CEvNS in existing and
future large detectors.
