Abstract

DUNE is a long-baseline accelerator experiment in construction at Fermilab and SURF (South Dakota). The scientific program encompasses the investigation of long-baseline neutrino oscillation, with a focus on the study of the CP violation and neutrino mass hierarchy, along with high sensitivity searches for rare events, such as the observation of supernova neutrino bursts and the search for proton decay. The DUNE far detector consists of four liquid Argon TPCs located deep underground, paired with a Photon Detection System. In the present article we will discuss the role of the PDS in the search of the aforementioned rare events and the latest results in terms of technological achievements obtained by the PDS Consortium.
