Description

Coherent Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering (CE$\nu$NS) provide a novel window to probe new physics connected with the well established non-vanishing neutrino masses. In this talk we will discuss how in the presence of a transition magnetic moment of neutrinos the CE𝜈NS experiments have the potential to shed light on the nature of neutrinos: Dirac vs Majorana. In particular, we will take the NUCLEUS experiment as an example to demonstrate that through a study of differential energy distribution of the final states the CEνNS experiments can potentially achieve such a feat.
