Investigation of Detector Settings for JUNO wih respect to Supernova Neutrinos

  • 1. III. Physikalisches Institut B, RWTH Aachen University (Germany)

Description

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 kt liquid scintillator reactor neutrino observatory, will be located near Kaiping in the province Guangdong, China. The main goal is the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy. The large target mass with a low energy threshold and the energy resolution of 3%/(E(MeV) makes it possible to yield high statistics of measured neutrinos. Supernovae are powerful cosmic sources of neutrinos in the MeV range. They are rare in close proximity and current theories have yet a high uncertainty. The expected high number of detected neutrinos from a galactic supernova, yields the possibility to constrain various supernovae models. An investigation of detector settings for supernova events, based on the simulated detector response for different supernova models is presented in this talk.
