Description
When a core-collapse supernova (SN) explodes, only 1 % of its energy is released through electromagnetic waves: the rest is emitted via neutrinos. If a galactic supernova will show up during its data taking, DarkSide-20k, a future 50-ton liquid argon dual-phase TPC, designed for the direct detection of dark matter particles, will perform a flavour insensitive detection of SN neutrinos via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, (CE \nu NS), providing additional information on the explosion mechanism. The sensitivity study is extended to Argo, the following future detector, filled with 300 tons of Liquid Argon. Furthermore, by the comparison with a charged current detection, discrimination between neutrino mass orderings, normal or inverted, can be inferred.
