JUNO is medium-baseline reactor neutrino experiment that will probe the neutrino spectrum mass ordering (MO) and will measure the mass-mixing oscillation parameters with unprecedented sub-percent precision. It will be complemented with a ton-level, high energy resolution liquid scintillator reference detector, TAO, that will measure the reactor neutrino spectrum with unprecedented accuracy. In this work we study if the limited knowledge of the reactor antineutrino spectrum and of its fine structure can have a significant effect on the mass ordering determination and on the precision measurements of the oscillation parameters, and try to assess the advantages of having the TAO reference detector.

Abstract

In this work we study if the limited knowledge of the reactor antineutrino spectrum and of its fine structure can have a significant effect on the mass ordering determination and on the precision measurements of the oscillation parameters, and try to assess the advantages of having the TAO reference detector.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
