Abstract
The Coherent Neutrino-Nucleus Interaction Experiment (CONNIE) uses fully depleted high-resistivity CCDs (charge coupled devices) with the aim of detecting the coherent elastic scattering of reactor antineutrinos off silicon nuclei and probing physics beyond the Standard Model. The analysis of the 2016‖2018 data allowed us to set an upper limit at 95% confidence level on the coherent scattering rate, which was used to place stringent constraints on simplified extensions of the Standard Model with light scalar and vector mediators. In 2019, the experiment operated with an improved readout and a lower energy threshold of 50 eV. We present the performance of the CONNIE experiment, new results of the analysis of 2019 data, and the recent update of the detector with skipper CCDs.
