Probing active to sterile neutrino oscillations in the LENS detector

  • 1. Institute of Particle, Nuclear and Astronomical Sciences, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, Virginia 24061 (United States)

Description

Sterile neutrino (νs) conversion in meter scale baselines can be sensitively probed using monoenergetic, sub-MeV, flavor-pure νe's from an artificial Megacurie source and the unique technology of the LENS low energy solar νe detector. Active-sterile oscillations can be directly observed in the granular LENS detector itself to critically test and extend results of short baseline accelerator and reactor experiments
