Abstract
The CONNIE experiment uses fully depleted, high resistivity CCDs as particle detectors in an attempt to measure for the first time the Coherent Neutrino-Nucleus Elastic Scattering of antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor with silicon nuclei. This talk, given at the XV Mexican Workshop on Particles and Fields (MWPF), discussed the potential of CONNIE to perform this measurement, the installation progress at the Angra dos Reis nuclear power plant, as well as the plans for future upgrades.
Highlights
The Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEνNS), is a Standard Model (SM) process where a neutrino, or antineutrino, interacts with a nucleus as a whole entity [1]
The Coherent Neutrino Nucleus Interaction Experiment (CONNIE) experiment uses fully depleted, high resistivity Charge Coupled Devices (CCD) as particle detectors in an attempt to measure for the first time the Coherent Neutrino-Nucleus Elastic Scattering of antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor with silicon nuclei
The Coherent Neutrino Nucleus Interaction Experiment (CONNIE) is a detector of solidstate technology installed at a nuclear reactor with an array of CCDs at its core, designed to observe the CEνNS reaction for the first time
