CROSS-SECTIONS FOR THE SOLAR NEUTRINOS CAPTURE AND CHARGE-EXCHANGE RESONANCES

<p>Investigation of charge-exchange resonances is important for calculating neutrino capturing cross-sections σ(E) of nuclei that can be used in neutrino detectors. Analog resonance, Gamow- Teller resonance (GTR) and three pigmy resonances are selected. Calculations were performed using the self-consistent theory of finite Fermi systems for Ga-71, Mo-98 and I-127. Even not accounting GTR gives a decrease of the σ(E) value more than 25%. Numbers of events in the interaction of solar neutrinos with these three nuclei calculated. It is shown that boron neutrinos make the main contribution and it is important to take into account all resonances.</p

SOLAR NEUTRINO CAPTURE CROSS-SECTION FOR Ge-76 NUCLEI

<p>In GERDA and LEGEND experiments, a solar neutrino absorption by Ge-76 isotope induces a background event which is indistinguishable from beta decay signal. We estimate cross sections for solar neutrino capture by Ge-76 nucleus for various excited states of daughter nucleus As-76. The Gamow-Teller transitions to the low-lying excited states and the Fermi transitions to the resonance states of this nucleus were taken into account. We demonstrate that these resonant excitations couldn't be neglected for calculating the interaction cross-section. Influence of these resonances enhances total count of neutrino-induced events by ∼ 40%.</p

Cosmic-ray muon flux at Canfranc Underground Laboratory

Abstract Residual flux and angular distribution of high-energy cosmic muons have been measured in two underground locations at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (LSC) using a dedicated Muon Monitor. The instrument consists of three layers of fast scintillation detector modules operating as 352 independent pixels. The monitor has a flux-defining area of 1 m² and covers all azimuth angles, and zenith angles up to 80°. The measured integrated muon flux is (5.26±0.21)×10⁻³ m⁻²s⁻¹ in the Hall A of the LAB2400 and (4.29±0.17)×10⁻³3 m⁻²s⁻¹ in LAB2500. The angular dependence is consistent with the known profile and rock density of the surrounding mountains. In particular, there is a clear maximum in the flux coming from the direction of the Rioseta valley

CEPC Technical Design Report -- Accelerator

International audienceThe Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is a large scientific project initiated and hosted by China, fostered through extensive collaboration with international partners. The complex comprises four accelerators: a 30 GeV Linac, a 1.1 GeV Damping Ring, a Booster capable of achieving energies up to 180 GeV, and a Collider operating at varying energy modes (Z, W, H, and ttbar). The Linac and Damping Ring are situated on the surface, while the Booster and Collider are housed in a 100 km circumference underground tunnel, strategically accommodating future expansion with provisions for a Super Proton Proton Collider (SPPC). The CEPC primarily serves as a Higgs factory. In its baseline design with synchrotron radiation (SR) power of 30 MW per beam, it can achieve a luminosity of 5e34 /cm^2/s^1, resulting in an integrated luminosity of 13 /ab for two interaction points over a decade, producing 2.6 million Higgs bosons. Increasing the SR power to 50 MW per beam expands the CEPC's capability to generate 4.3 million Higgs bosons, facilitating precise measurements of Higgs coupling at sub-percent levels, exceeding the precision expected from the HL-LHC by an order of magnitude. This Technical Design Report (TDR) follows the Preliminary Conceptual Design Report (Pre-CDR, 2015) and the Conceptual Design Report (CDR, 2018), comprehensively detailing the machine's layout and performance, physical design and analysis, technical systems design, R&D and prototyping efforts, and associated civil engineering aspects. Additionally, it includes a cost estimate and a preliminary construction timeline, establishing a framework for forthcoming engineering design phase and site selection procedures. Construction is anticipated to begin around 2027-2028, pending government approval, with an estimated duration of 8 years. The commencement of experiments could potentially initiate in the mid-2030s
