Item type:Publication, Supernova Neutrino Burst Detection with the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment(White Rose University Consortium, 2020-08-15)Abstract: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), a 40-kton underground liquid argon time projection chamber experiment, will be sensitive to the electron-neutrino flavor component of the burst of neutrinos expected from the next Galactic core-collapse supernova. Such an observation will bring unique insight into the astrophysics of core collapse as well as into the properties of neutrinos. The general capabilities of DUNE for neutrino detection in the relevant few- to few-tens-of-MeV neutrino energy range will be described. As an example, DUNE’s ability to constrain the νe spectral parameters of the neutrino burst will be considered.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Prospects for beyond the Standard Model physics searches at the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment(White Rose University Consortium, 2020-11-10)Abstract: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) will be a powerful tool for a variety of physics topics. The high-intensity proton beams provide a large neutrino flux, sampled by a near detector system consisting of a combination of capable precision detectors, and by the massive far detector system located deep underground. This configuration sets up DUNE as a machine for discovery, as it enables opportunities not only to perform precision neutrino measurements that may uncover deviations from the present three-flavor mixing paradigm, but also to discover new particles and unveil new interactions and symmetries beyond those predicted in the Standard Model (SM). Of the many potential beyond the Standard Model (BSM) topics DUNE will probe, this paper presents a selection of studies quantifying DUNE’s sensitivities to sterile neutrino mixing, heavy neutral leptons, non-standard interactions, CPT symmetry violation, Lorentz invariance violation, neutrino trident production, dark matter from both beam induced and cosmogenic sources, baryon number violation, and other new physics topics that complement those at high-energy colliders and significantly extend the present reach.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), Far Detector Technical Design Report, Volume II: DUNE Physics(U.S. Department of Energy / OSTI, 2020-02-07)The preponderance of matter over antimatter in the early universe, the dynamics of the supernovae that produced the heavy elements necessary for life, and whether protons eventually decay -- these mysteries at the forefront of particle physics and astrophysics are key to understanding the early evolution of our universe, its current state, and its eventual fate. DUNE is an international world-class experiment dedicated to addressing these questions as it searches for leptonic charge-parity symmetry violation, stands ready to capture supernova neutrino bursts, and seeks to observe nucleon decay as a signature of a grand unified theory underlying the standard model. The DUNE far detector technical design report (TDR) describes the DUNE physics program and the technical designs of the single- and dual-phase DUNE liquid argon TPC far detector modules. Volume II of this TDR, DUNE Physics, describes the array of identified scientific opportunities and key goals. Crucially, we also report our best current understanding of the capability of DUNE to realize these goals, along with the detailed arguments and investigations on which this understanding is based. This TDR volume documents the scientific basis underlying the conception and design of the LBNF/DUNE experimental configurations. As a result, the description of DUNE's experimental capabilities constitutes the bulk of the document. Key linkages between requirements for successful execution of the physics program and primary specifications of the experimental configurations are drawn and summarized. This document also serves a wider purpose as a statement on the scientific potential of DUNE as a central component within a global program of frontier theoretical and experimental particle physics research. Thus, the presentation also aims to serve as a resource for the particle physics community at large. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Plane waves reversibility(Sociedad Mexicana de Física, 2020-08-22)This work simulates reversibility of plane waves in different ways. We start making theoretical classical reversing of a plane wave in two different ways exchanging t by –t as first step. In one case, we additionally flip the temporal orientation of the magnetic field. In the other case, we flip the electric field. Therefore, we can compare two classical approaches to time reversed electromagnetism on plane waves. On the other hand, we obtain two different mechanically reversed plane electromagnetic waves out of the frame of the electromagnetics reversibility theory. A theoretical experiment makes these effects, where, an infinite plane current generates two plane waves in opposite directions. After this, the waves are made to return by two different ways: (1) by retro reflecting and (2) by moving back the wave. Finally, the returning plane waves insides over a conductor plane in order to induce plane currents in the conductor. The goal is to complete reversibility cycles including the charges movement. The returning waves and the induced currents will be compared themselves in all the cases. Charges movements are also included in the discussion in order to have an additional felling of the waves reversibility and physical insight of time-reversed waves. It is used a plane waves theoretical experiment created by Feynman as a starting point [1] - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Probing nuclear effects with neutrino-induced charged-current neutral pion production(American Physical Society, 2020-10-19)We study neutrino-induced charged-current (CC) ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ production on carbon nuclei using events with fully imaged final-state proton-${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ systems. Novel use of final-state correlations based on transverse kinematic imbalance enables the first measurements of the struck nucleon's Fermi motion, of the intranuclear momentum transfer (IMT) dynamics, and of the final-state hadronic momentum configuration in neutrino pion production. Event distributions are presented for (i) the momenta of neutrino-struck neutrons below the Fermi surface, (ii) the direction of missing transverse momentum characterizing the strength of IMT, and (iii) proton-pion momentum imbalance with respect to the lepton scattering plane. The observed Fermi motion and IMT strength are compared to the previous $\mathrm{MINER}\ensuremath{\nu}\mathrm{A}$ measurement of neutrino CC quasielastic-like production. The measured shapes and absolute rates of these distributions, as well as the cross section asymmetries, show tensions with predictions from current neutrino generator models. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Double-differential inclusive charged-current νμ cross sections on hydrocarbon in MINERvA at Eν ∼3.5 GeV(American Physical Society, 2020-06-01)MINERvA reports inclusive charged-current cross sections for muon neutrinos on hydrocarbon in the NuMI beamline. We measured the double-differential cross section in terms of the longitudinal and transverse muon momenta, as well as the single-differential cross sections in those variables. The data used in this analysis correspond to an exposure of $3.34\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{20}$ protons on target with a peak neutrino energy of approximately 3.5 GeV. Measurements are compared to the GENIE, NuWro and GiBUU neutrino cross-section predictions, as well as a version of GENIE modified to produce better agreement with prior exclusive MINERvA measurements. None of the models or variants were able to successfully reproduce the data across the entire phase space, which includes areas dominated by each interaction channel.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Nucleon binding energy and transverse momentum imbalance in neutrino-nucleus reactions(American Physical Society, 2020-05-01)We have measured new observables based on the final state kinematic imbalances in the mesonless production of ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}+A\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\ensuremath{-}}+p+X$ in the MINER\ensuremath{\nu}A tracker. Components of the muon-proton momentum imbalances parallel ($\ensuremath{\delta}{p}_{\mathrm{Ty}}$) and perpendicular ($\ensuremath{\delta}{p}_{\mathrm{Tx}}$) to the momentum transfer in the transverse plane are found to be sensitive to the nuclear effects such as Fermi motion, binding energy, and non-quasielastic (QE) contributions. The QE peak location in $\ensuremath{\delta}{p}_{\mathrm{Ty}}$ is particularly sensitive to the binding energy. Differential cross sections are compared to predictions from different neutrino interaction models. The Fermi gas models presented in this study cannot simultaneously describe features such as QE peak location, width, and the non-QE events contributing to the signal process. Correcting the genie's binding energy implementation according to theory causes better agreement with data. Hints of proton left-right asymmetry are observed in $\ensuremath{\delta}{p}_{\mathrm{Tx}}$. Better modeling of the binding energy can reduce the bias in neutrino energy reconstruction, and these observables can be applied in current and future experiments to better constrain nuclear effects.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Biosorción del colorante azul de metileno usando los cladodios de la tuna (Opuntia ficus indica)(Sociedad Química del Perú, 2020-09-30)La biosorción es un proceso efectivo para la remoción de colorantes sintéticos desde soluciones acuosas. Se estudió el uso de la biomasa de los cladodios de la tuna (BCT) para remover el colorante catiónico azul de metileno (AM) de la solución acuosa. Las técnicas de caracterización: FTIR, SEM y punto de carga cero (pHPCC) muestran las características químicas y físicas de la BCT. Se evaluaron los parámetros experimentales que afectan el proceso de biosorción, como el pH, tiempo de contacto y la dosis de biomasa/volumen, en un sistema estacionario. Los datos experimentales del equilibrio se ajustaron al modelo de la isoterma de Langmuir, la capacidad máxima de biosorción del AM fue de 156,25 mg/g con una dosis de BCT/volumen de 4 g/L, pH 8 y tiempo de contacto de 120 min. Los datos cinéticos se pueden describir bien con el modelo de pseudo-segundo orden, la biosorción parece estar controlada por la quimisorción y puede estar involucrada con la adsorción sobre la superficie y la difusión en los poros durante todo el proceso de biosorción. Se demostró que la BCT se constituye como un biomaterial prometedor, eficiente y biodegradable para eliminar el AM de las aguas residuales. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, First results on ProtoDUNE-SP liquid argon time projection chamber performance from a beam test at the CERN Neutrino Platform(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020-12-01)The ProtoDUNE-SP detector is a single-phase liquid argon time projection chamber with an active volume of 7.2 × 6.1 × 7.0 m 3 . It is installed at the CERN Neutrino Platform in a specially-constructed beam that delivers charged pions, kaons, protons, muons and electrons with momenta in the range 0.3 GeV/ c to 7 GeV/ c . Beam line instrumentation provides accurate momentum measurements and particle identification. The ProtoDUNE-SP detector is a prototype for the first far detector module of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, and it incorporates full-size components as designed for that module. This paper describes the beam line, the time projection chamber, the photon detectors, the cosmic-ray tagger, the signal processing and particle reconstruction. It presents the first results on ProtoDUNE-SP's performance, including noise and gain measurements, dE / dx calibration for muons, protons, pions and electrons, drift electron lifetime measurements, and photon detector noise, signal sensitivity and time resolution measurements. The measured values meet or exceed the specifications for the DUNE far detector, in several cases by large margins. ProtoDUNE-SP's successful operation starting in 2018 and its production of large samples of high-quality data demonstrate the effectiveness of the single-phase far detector design.
