论文摘要

我们发现,在第三或第四个沙丘样模块中,可以通过对放射性刺激性进行仔细控制,并对类似于Dune FAR探测器设计的检测器进行一些修改,从而提高对低能物理的敏感性。特别是,通过改进的MEV规模范围,可以增强对超新星和太阳中微子的敏感性。具有$^{136} $ XE加载的中准双β衰减搜索似乎可行。此外,对这种检测器中计划的世界程序的敏感性(WIMP)暗物质(DM)变得更有竞争力,提供了一种独特的季节性变异检测,这是WIMPS性质的特征。

We find that it is possible to increase sensitivity to low energy physics in a third or fourth DUNE-like module with careful controls over radiopurity and some modifications to a detector similar to the DUNE Far Detector design. In particular, sensitivity to supernova and solar neutrinos can be enhanced with improved MeV-scale reach. A neutrinoless double beta decay search with $^{136}$Xe loading appears feasible. Furthermore, sensitivity to Weakly-Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) Dark Matter (DM) becomes competitive with the planned world program in such a detector, offering a unique seasonal variation detection that is characteristic for the nature of WIMPs.
