nuSTORM：来自存储μ子的中微子
nuSTORM: Neutrinos from STORed Muons
摘要：
LSND和MiniBooNE的结果，以及最近关于可能的反应堆中微子通量异常的论文，提供了新物理学的诱人线索。超越中微子-SM的模型已经被发展来解释这些结果，并涉及一个或多个非相互作用或“无菌”的额外中微子。“在一个类似跑道的衰变环中，μ子衰变产生的中微子束为研究这种潜在的新物理提供了一种强有力的方法。在这份意向书中，我们描述了一个设施，nuSTORM，“从存储的μ子中微子”，和一个适当的远探测器在短基线的中微子振荡搜索。我们目前的灵敏度图表明，这种实验方法可以提供超过10西格玛确认或拒绝LSND/MinBooNE的结果。此外，我们指出该设施可用于精确的中微子相互作用截面测量重要的下一代长基线中微子振荡实验。
英文摘要：
The results of LSND and MiniBooNE, along with the recent papers on a possible reactor neutrino flux anomaly give tantalizing hints of new physics. Models beyond the neutrino-SM have been developed to explain these results and involve one or more additional neutrinos that are non-interacting or "sterile." Neutrino beams produced from the decay of muons in a racetrack-like decay ring provide a powerful way to study this potential new physics. In this Letter of Intent, we describe a facility, nuSTORM, "Neutrinos from STORed Muons," and an appropriate far detector for neutrino oscillation searches at short baseline. We present sensitivity plots that indicated that this experimental approach can provide over 10 sigma confirmation or rejection of the LSND/MinBooNE results. In addition we indicate how the facility can be used to make precision neutrino interaction cross section measurements important to the next generation of long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments.
