The vGeN ("nu-GeN") setup is collecting data at Kalinin NPP, 11.1 m from the center of a 3.1 GW reactor core, since late 2019. The aim of the experiment is to measure coherent elastic antineutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) as well as to search for antineutrino electromagnetic properties with a 1.4 kg germanium point-contact detector. The talk presents updated results of the experiment on...
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) benefits from the coherent interaction of neutrinos with an entire nucleus at low momentum transfer, resulting in an enhanced cross section that provides a sensitive approach for detecting low-energy neutrinos. The CICENNS (CsI Detector for Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering) experiment aims to perform a high-precision measurement...
Upcoming and present reactor neutrino experiments offer a compelling avenue to probe fundamental neutrino properties beyond flavor oscillations. In this talk, I will discuss the physics potential of a short-baseline reactor experiment, inspired by the JUNO-TAO configuration, to investigate neutrino electromagnetic interactions via electron--neutrino elastic scattering (E$\nu$ES). I will...
Atomic parity violation (APV) provides a unique determination of the weak mixing angle ($\sin^2\theta_W$) at low energies and therefore serves as a powerful precision test of the Standard Model. We show that previous APV calculations omitted a class of one-loop contributions arising from two-neutrino exchange, commonly referred to as "the neutrino force". We compute this contribution to APV...
