DAEδALUS: A Path to δCP Using Cyclotron Decay-at-Rest Neutrino Sources

Creators

Description

DAEδALUS is a proposed phased neutrino experiment to search for evidence of CP violation in the neutrino sector, which also provides a rich physics program at each stage of development. The final experiment will comprise several cyclotron-based accelerator units located at three different distances from a single, large underground detector such as LENA, MEMPHYS, or Hyper-K and search for evidence of CP violation in the oscillation probability of muon antineutrinos to electron antineutrinos over baselines of ∼ 20 km. This novel type of search will complement and extend the reach of conventional experiments designed to search for CP violation in neutrino oscillations such as the Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE). IsoDAR is a separate proposed experiment possible at an early stage in the development of DAEδALUS. It is a definitive search for sterile neutrinos, capable of ruling out the parameter space allowed by global fits to the Reactor, SAGE, and GALLEX anomalies at 20σ(5σ) in 5 years (4 months)
