Note there exist a number of abbreviations for this process in the literature, e.g., CNS, CNNS, CENNS. We favor a version with "E" for "elastic" to distinguish the process from inelastic coherent pion production, which is commonly confused with CEvNS by members of the high energy physics community. We prefer to replace the first "N" with "v", for "neutrino", for two reasons: first, "NN" means "nucleon-nucleon" to many in the nuclear physics community. Second, this disambiguates from CENNS, which is the name of an experimental collaboration. Finally, the Roman letter "v" is less cumbersome than the Greek letter "ν".
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
