Abstract
The NA65/DsTau experiment is an approved CERN experiment with the scope to investigate the tau neutrino production using nuclear emulsion. The production process of tau neutrino is important in the precise measurement of the cross-section of tau neutrinos, which has a positive impact on other experiments. A pilot run was conducted in 2018 and the analysis is underway. Preparations are also ongoing for physics runs in 2021 and 2022.
Highlights
The detection of tau neutrinos is very difficult due to the short lifetime of tau lepton which decays into tau neutrino
