“…Below 100 MeV, no measurements of charged-current neutrinoargon cross sections are currently available [14], and competing theoretical calculations have significant discrepancies [15]. While the importance of obtaining a precise understanding of neutrino-nucleus scattering at accelerator energies is widely recognized [16][17][18], and the impact of related uncertainties has been studied in detail by the DUNE collaboration [19], the same cannot yet be said for the tens of MeV regime relevant for supernova neutrino detection. This situation exists despite shared analysis challenges between the two energy scales: in both cases, a reliable cross-section model is needed for neutrino calorimetry, efficiency estimation, and removal of some classes of background events.…”

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 $$\nu _e$$ ν e spectral parameters of the neutrino burst will be considered.
