Solar-Neutrino Detection Gets a Boost

Abstract

A new measurement method allows researchers to obtain directional information about low-energy solar neutrinos, something that was previously hard to do.

Dark Matter decay to neutrinos

“…Upcoming neutrino telescopes will make improvements of one to two orders of magnitude: DUNE and Hyper-Kamiokande will fill in the gap around m χ ∼ GeV, while the strongest improvements will take place for the next generation of large-volume water and ice Cherenkov telescopes: KM3NeT, P-ONE, and IceCube-Gen2. Though not included here, the ongoing scintillator phase of SNO+ [94] may also shore up constraints on the low-mass end, depending on the timeline for tellurium filling; the inclusion of directional information in, e.g., Borexino [95] or KamLAND analyses could also yield a modest improvement in reach [96,97].…”
