Title: SNeND Measurements: “Supernova Neutrino constrained by Neutrino Data” for DUNE

Abstract:  Neutrinos are the electrically neutral elementary particles with finite mass. The discovery of their non-zero masses is the first instance of a conflict with the Standard Model of particle physics, which has successfully described elementary particles and interactions but leaves questions unanswered. The fruitful results from neutrino experiments in the past two decades provide us with a paradigm, but further precision measurements are required to address the fundamental questions.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), the flagship particle physics experiment in the US, aims to answer important questions in neutrino physics, and to detect neutrinos from explosions of core-collapse supernovae. In this talk, I will be focused on the detector technology used in DUNE, liquid-argon time-projection chambers (LArTPCs), and the development of supernova neutrino measurements in DUNE.

Host: Jim Kneller
