Abstract

The cross section for neutron interactions on argon is an important design and operational parameter for a number of neutrino, dark matter, and neutrinoless double beta decay experiments which use liquid argon as a detection or shielding medium. There is a discrepancy between the evaluated total cross section in the $20$ to $70~\rm$\,keV neutron kinetic energy region given in the ENDF database and a single measurement conducted by an experiment with a thin target (0.2 atoms/barn) optimized for higher cross sections. This gives rise to significant uncertainty in the interaction length of neutrons in liquid argon. This discrepancy is now resolved by new results presented here from the Argon Resonance Transport Interaction Experiment (ARTIE), a thick target experiment (3.3 atoms/barn) optimized for the small cross sections in this energy region., Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures.

3. A New Method for Measuring Coherent Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering at an Off-Axis High-Energy Neutrino Beam Target

Abstract

We present a new experimental method for measuring the process of Coherent Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering (CENNS). This method uses a detector situated transverse to a high energy neutrino beam production target. This detector would be sensitive to the low energy neutrinos arising from pion decays-at-rest in the target. We discuss the physics motivation for making this measurement and outline the predicted backgrounds and sensitivities using this approach. We report a measurement of neutron backgrounds as found in an off-axis surface location of the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) target. The results indicate that the Fermilab BNB target is a favorable location for a CENNS experiment.

Abstract

This report, prepared for the Community Planning Study - Snowmass 2013 - summarizes the theoretical motivations and the experimental efforts to search for baryon number violation, focussing on nucleon decay and neutron-antineutron oscillations. Present and future nucleon decay search experiments using large underground detectors, as well as planned neutron-antineutron oscillation search experiments with free neutron beams are highlighted., Comment: Report of the Community Summer Study (Snowmass 2013), Intensity Frontier -- Baryon Number Violation Group
