Abstract
We propose to use the unique event topology and reconstruction capabilities of liquid argon time projection chambers to study sub-GeV atmospheric neutrinos. The detection of low energy recoiled protons in DUNE allows for a determination of the leptonic CP-violating phase independent from the accelerator neutrino measurement. Our findings indicate that this analysis can exclude a range of values of δ_{CP} beyond the 3σ level. Moreover, the determination of the sub-GeV atmospheric neutrino flux will have important consequences in the detection of diffuse supernova neutrinos and in dark matter experiments.

The detection of low energy recoiled protons in Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) allows for a determination of the leptonic CP-violating phase independent from the accelerator neutrino measurement
In this Letter, we propose to use the unique event reconstruction capabilities of liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) to estimate how the future Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) [22] will be able to measure sub-GeV atmospheric neutrinos and extract information on δCP complementary to the accelerator neutrino program
Summary
We propose to use the unique event topology and reconstruction capabilities of liquid argon time projection chambers to study sub-GeV atmospheric neutrinos. The determination of the sub-GeV atmospheric neutrino flux will have important consequences in the detection of diffuse supernova neutrinos and in dark matter experiments.
