论文摘要

相干弹性中微子核散射(CE $ν$ ns)是最近在ORNL散布中子源首次测量的过程,对核的弱形值直接敏感。目前正在建设的欧洲散布来源(ESS)将产生最激烈的脉冲中微子通量,适合于检测CE $ν$ ns。在本文中,我们量化了其潜在的潜力,以确定各种靶核和一组检测器的点 - 中子分布的均方根半径。为了将结果放在上下文中,我们也首次得出了对CSI检测器在相干实验中的能量和时序数据的分析对此参数的限制。

Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$ν$NS), a process recently measured for the first time at ORNL's Spallation Neutron Source, is directly sensitive to the weak form factor of the nucleus. The European Spallation Source (ESS), presently under construction, will generate the most intense pulsed neutrino flux suitable for the detection of CE$ν$NS. In this paper we quantify its potential to determine the root mean square radius of the point-neutron distribution, for a variety of target nuclei and a suite of detectors. To put our results in context we also derive, for the first time, a constraint on this parameter from the analysis of the energy and timing data of the CsI detector at the COHERENT experiment.
