Large-energy single hits at JUNO from atmospheric neutrinos and dark matter
Large-energy single hits at JUNO from atmospheric neutrinos and dark matter
Large liquid scintillator detectors, such as JUNO, present a new opportunity to study neutral current events from the low-energy end of the atmospheric neutrinos, and possible new physics signals due to light dark matter. We carefully study the possibility of detecting ``large-energy singles'' (LES), i.e., events with visible scintillation energy …
