Abstract

Interactions of cosmic ray protons, atomic nuclei, and electrons in the interstellar medium in the inner part of the Milky Way produce a $\gamma$-ray flux from the Galactic Ridge. If the $\gamma$-ray emission is dominated by proton and nuclei interactions, a neutrino flux comparable to the $\gamma$-ray flux is expected from the same sky region. Data collected by the ANTARES neutrino telescope are used to constrain the neutrino flux from the Galactic Ridge in the 1-100 TeV energy range. Neutrino events reconstructed both as tracks and showers are considered in the analysis and the selection is optimized for the search of an excess in the region $|l| < 30\deg$, $|b| < 2\deg$. The expected background in the search region is estimated using an off-zone region with similar sky coverage. Neutrino signal originating from a power-law spectrum with spectral index ranging from $\Gamma_\nu=1$ to $4$ is simulated in both channels. The observed energy distributions are fitted to constrain the neutrino emission from the Ridge. The energy distributions in the signal region are inconsistent with the background expectation at $\sim 96\%$ confidence level. The mild excess over the background is consistent with a neutrino flux with a power law with a spectral index $2.45^{+0.22}_{-0.34}$ and a flux normalization $dN_\nu/dE_\nu = 4.0^{+2.7}_{-2.0} \times 10^{-16} \text{GeV}^{-1} \text{cm}^{-2} \text{s}^{-1} \text{sr}^{-1}$ at 40 TeV reference energy. Such flux is consistent with the expected neutrino signal if the bulk of the observed $\gamma$-ray flux from the Galactic Ridge originates from interactions of cosmic ray protons and nuclei with a power-law spectrum extending well into the PeV energy range., Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures

Abstract

Since 2015, the LIGO and Virgo collaborations have detected gravitational waves (GWs) from almost one hundred coalescences of compact objects (black holes and neutron stars). No neutrino counterparts have yet been clearly associated with these objects, across all energies from MeV to PeV. Such observation would greatly help in understanding the connection between the dynamics of the progenitor and the properties of the relativistic outflow at the origin of non-thermal high-energy emission. Searches have been performed using data from the ANTARES neutrino telescope and the latest catalogues covering LIGO-Virgo third observation run (O3). Neutrinos within ±500 s of the GW time and direction compatible with the GW skymap are selected. The final results will be presented, as well as the corresponding bounds on neutrino emission from the events in the GW catalogues, assuming either isotropic emission or the presence of a jet. The results of a population study focusing on binary black hole mergers will also be described.

Abstract

Astrophysical neutrinos are excellent probes of astroparticle physics and high-energy physics. With energies far beyond solar, supernovae, atmospheric, and accelerator neutrinos, high-energy and ultra-high-energy neutrinos probe fundamental physics from the TeV scale to the EeV scale and beyond. They are sensitive to physics both within and beyond the Standard Model through their production mechanisms and in their propagation over cosmological distances. They carry unique information about their extreme non-thermal sources by giving insight into regions that are opaque to electromagnetic radiation. This white paper describes the opportunities astrophysical neutrino observations offer for astrophysics and high-energy physics, today and in coming years.

Abstract

Artículo escrito por un elevado número de autores, solo se referencian el que aparece en primer lugar, los autores pertenecientes a la UAM y el nombre del grupo de colaboración, si lo hubiere, The existence of nonzero neutrino masses points to the likely existence of multiple Standard Model neutral fermions. When such states are heavy enough that they cannot be produced in oscillations, they are referred to as heavy neutral leptons (HNLs). In this white paper, we discuss the present experimental status of HNLs including colliders, beta decay, accelerators, as well as astrophysical and cosmological impacts. We discuss the importance of continuing to search for HNLs, and its potential impact on our understanding of key fundamental questions, and additionally we outline the future prospects for next-generation future experiments or upcoming accelerator run scenarios

Abstract

Developing sustainable software for the scientific community requires expertise in software engineering and domain science. This can be challenging due to the unique needs of scientific software, the insufficient resources for software engineering practices in the scientific community, and the complexity of developing for evolving scientific contexts. While open-source software can partially address these concerns, it can introduce complicating dependencies and delay development. These issues can be reduced if scientists and software developers collaborate. We present a case study wherein scientists from the SuperNova Early Warning System collaborated with software developers from the Scalable Cyberinfrastructure for Multi-Messenger Astrophysics project. The collaboration addressed the difficulties of open-source software development, but presented additional risks to each team. For the scientists, there was a concern of relying on external systems and lacking control in the development process. For the developers, there was a risk in supporting a user-group while maintaining core development. These issues were mitigated by creating a second Agile Scrum framework in parallel with the developers' ongoing Agile Scrum process. This Agile collaboration promoted communication, ensured that the scientists had an active role in development, and allowed the developers to evaluate and implement the scientists' software requirements. The collaboration provided benefits for each group: the scientists actuated their development by using an existing platform, and the developers utilized the scientists' use-case to improve their systems. This case study suggests that scientists and software developers can avoid scientific computing issues by collaborating and that Agile Scrum methods can address emergent concerns., Revisions: in response to peer-review recommendations, most sections have been substantially expanded and reworked, five new figures have been added, and the title has been changed. Results unchanged

Abstract

The cubic-kilometre neutrino telescope, which consists of large-scale 3D-arrays of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) currently under construction on the Mediterranean seabed, relies on accurate calibration procedures in order to answer its science goals. These proceedings present the gain calibration method used in KM3NeT, which is based on highly compressed PMT hit information. In particular, it is shown that the PMT gains can be tuned to within 2% of the nominal value, based on the measured single photoelectron time-over-threshold distribution of each PMT., 6 pages, 4 figures.

Abstract

KM3NeT/ORCA is a dense array that constitutes the low-energy branch of the KM3NeT project with the main goal of resolving the question of the neutrino mass ordering. At present, the KM3NeT/ORCA Phase 1 has already been deployed, which means that six out of the planned 115 detection lines are operational. Even with this limited configuration, neutrino oscillations can already be measured and studied. In this contribution, the sensitivity to the neutrino Non-Standard Interactions (NSI) parameter $\epsilon_{\mu \tau}$ using the current stage of the KM3NeT/ORCA detector together with the projections for the final configuration are presented.

Abstract

KM3NeT is a multi-purpose cubic-kilometer neutrino observatory under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. It consists of ORCA and ARCA (for Oscillation and Astroparticle Research with Cosmics in the Abyss, respectively), currently both have a few detection lines in operation. Although having different primary goals, both detectors can be used for neutrino astronomy over a wide energy range, from a few tens of MeVs to a few tens of PeV. In view of the growing field of time-domain astronomy, it is crucial to be able to identify neutrino candidates in real-time. This online neutrino sample will allow triggered neutrino alerts that will be sent to the astronomy community and to look for time/space coincidences around external electromagnetic and multi-messenger triggers. These real-time searches can significantly increase the discovery potential of transient cosmic accelerators and refine the pointing directions in the case of poorly localized triggers, such as gravitational waves. In the field of core-collapse supernovae (CCSN), the detection of the MeV-scale CCSN neutrinos is crucial as an early warning of the electromagnetic follow-up. KM3NeT's digital optical modules act as good detectors for these supernovae neutrinos. This proceeding presents the status of KM3NeT's real-time multi-messenger activities, including online event reconstruction, event classification and selection, alert distribution, and supernova monitoring., 6 pages, 6 figures, VLVNT2021 conference proceedings

Abstract

The KM3NeT research infrastructure is under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. It consists of two water Cherenkov neutrino detectors, ARCA and ORCA, aimed at neutrino astrophysics and oscillation research, respectively. Instrumenting a large volume of sea water with $$\sim {6200}$$ ∼ 6200 optical modules comprising a total of $$\sim {200{,}000}$$ ∼ 200 , 000 photomultiplier tubes, KM3NeT will achieve sensitivity to $$\sim {10} \ \mathrm{MeV}$$ ∼ 10 MeV neutrinos from Galactic and near-Galactic core-collapse supernovae through the observation of coincident hits in photomultipliers above the background. In this paper, the sensitivity of KM3NeT to a supernova explosion is estimated from detailed analyses of background data from the first KM3NeT detection units and simulations of the neutrino signal. The KM3NeT observational horizon (for a $$5\,\sigma $$ 5 σ discovery) covers essentially the Milky-Way and for the most optimistic model, extends to the Small Magellanic Cloud ($$\sim {60} \ \mathrm{kpc}$$ ∼ 60 kpc ). Detailed studies of the time profile of the neutrino signal allow assessment of the KM3NeT capability to determine the arrival time of the neutrino burst with a few milliseconds precision for sources up to 5–8 kpc away, and detecting the peculiar signature of the standing accretion shock instability if the core-collapse supernova explosion happens closer than 3–5 kpc, depending on the progenitor mass. KM3NeT’s capability to measure the neutrino flux spectral parameters is also presented.

Abstract

This paper proposes a new approach for the selection of low-energy neutrino bursts, such as the ones detected after a supernova. It exploits the temporal structure of the expected signal with respect to the more diffuse background by defining a "Real-time Test Statistic" (RTS) that would allow identifying very weak signals, hard to select using standard clustering methods. For a given background rate, the new method (RTS$^2$: RTS for Supernovae) increases signal efficiency while keeping the same false alarm rate for Poisson-distributed background. By adding a spatial penalty term to the definition of RTS, one can also reject spatially-correlated backgrounds such as the ones due to spallation events. Furthermore, the method is easy to implement in a real-time monitoring system as RTS can be computed recursively for successive events, and it can be easily adapted for detectors of all scales that may want to send prompt alerts e.g. through SNEWS 2.0 network., Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures

Abstract

Current neutrino detectors will observe hundreds to thousands of neutrinos from a Galactic supernovae, and future detectors will increase this yield by an order of magnitude or more. With such a data set comes the potential for a huge increase in our understanding of the explosions of massive stars, nuclear physics under extreme conditions, and the properties of the neutrino. However, there is currently a large gap between supernova simulations and the corresponding signals in neutrino detectors, which will make any comparison between theory and observation very difficult. SNEWPY is an open-source software package which bridges this gap. The SNEWPY code can interface with supernova simulation data to generate from the model either a time series of neutrino spectral fluences at Earth, or the total time-integrated spectral fluence. Data from several hundred simulations of core-collapse, thermonuclear, and pair-instability supernovae is included in the package. This output may then be used by an event generator such as sntools or an event rate calculator such as SNOwGLoBES. Additional routines in the SNEWPY package automate the processing of the generated data through the SNOwGLoBES software and collate its output into the observable channels of each detector. In this paper we describe the contents of the package, the physics behind SNEWPY, the organization of the code, and provide examples of how to make use of its capabilities.

Abstract

The KM3NeT collaboration is constructing two large neutrino detectors in the Mediterranean Sea: ARCA, located near Sicily and aiming at neutrino astronomy, and ORCA, located near Toulon and designed for neutrino oscillation studies. The two detectors, together, will have hundreds of Detection Units (DUs) with 18 Digital Optical Modules (DOMs) maintained vertical by buoyancy, forming a large 3D optical array for detecting the Cherenkov light produced after the neutrino interactions. To properly reconstruct the direction of the incoming neutrino, the position of the DOMs must be known precisely with an accuracy of less than 10 cm. For this purpose, there are acoustic and orientation sensors inside the DOMs. An Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) chip provides the components values of the Acceleration and Magnetic field in the DOM, from which it is possible to calculate Yaw, Pitch, and Roll for each floor of the line. A piezo sensor detects the signals from fixed acoustic emitters on the seafloor, so as to position it by trilateration. Data from these sensors are used as an input to reconstruct the shape of the entire line based on a DU Line Fit mechanical model. This proceeding presents an overview of the KM3NeT monitoring system, as well as the line fit model and a selection of results., Comment: 6 pages

18. Follow-up of Gravitational Wave events with Super-Kamiokande

Abstract

The Super-Kamiokande detector is a $50$-kton water tank instrumented with $\sim 13$k photomultipliers, running since $1996$. It is sensitive to neutrinos with energies ranging from $4.5$ MeV to several TeV. Except for supernova bursts, it is difficult to use Super-Kamiokande as an independent astrophysical trigger as its data are dominated by atmospheric neutrinos in this energy range. However, it can be used to search for neutrino events in time and spatial coincidence with various external triggers. We developed a framework for the follow-up of gravitational wave alerts. We searched for neutrinos in a $1000$ seconds time window centered on alert time. Results using LIGO/Virgo O3 datasets will be presented, as well as the plans of future realtime public release for O4 and beyond.

Abstract

The real-time recognition of neutrino signals from astrophysical objects with very-low false alarm rate and short-latency, is crucial to perform multi-messenger detection, especially in the case of distant core-collapse supernovae accessible with the next generation of large-scale neutrino telescopes. The current time-based selection algorithms implemented in operating online monitors depend mainly on the number of events (multiplicity) detected in a fixed time window, under the hypothesis of Poisson-distributed background. However, these methods are not capable of exploiting the time profile discrepancies between the expected supernova neutrino burst and the stationary background. In this paper we propose a new general and flexible technique (beta filter method) which provides specific decision boundaries on the cluster multiplicity-duration plane, guaranteeing the desired false alarm rate in an analytical way. The performance is evaluated using the injection of a general purpose SN-like signal on top of realistic background rates in current detectors. An absolute gain in efficiency of up to $\sim 80\%$ is achieved compared with the standard techniques, and a new ultra-low multiplicity region is unveiled., 7 pages, 7 figures

Abstract

Non-zero neutrino mass requires the introduction of new physic beyond the Standard Model. For instance, the nuMSM (Neutrino Minimal Standard Model) predicts the existence of new heavy neutrinos, with masses at GeV-scale, that would explain both neutrino masses and baryon asymmetry in the Universe.A particularly interesting mass domain is between 140 and 493 MeV/c^2, which is accessible to current experiments, in particular with the near detector ND280 of the T2K experiment, which is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment located in Japan.The analysis aims at the selection of a sample containing heavy neutrino decays, after they have been produced in kaon decays along the standard T2K neutrino beam. Background coming from standard neutrino interactions has been reduced to few events in the current dataset (2010-2017), which allow to constrain heavy neutrino parameter space quite well with respect to dedicated experiments such as PS191.An important step in the analysis consists in the validation of the reconstruction algorithms and of the expected background. It has been done with the study of active neutrino interactions in the walls of the TPCs. This sample is also interesting per se for physics.A last topic in this thesis concerns the upgrade of the near detector, that is scheduled for 2021. The goal is to improve neutrino cross-section measurements in order to get more precise determination of oscillation parameters., La masse non-nulle des neutrinos rend nécessaire l'introduction de nouvelle physique pour expliquer celle-ci. Par exemple, l'ajout de neutrinos lourds avec une masse de l'ordre du GeV permettrait d'expliquer à la fois la masse des neutrinos et l'asymétrie matière-antimatière dans l'Univers, comme cela est proposé dans le modèle nuMSM.Un domaine de masse particulièrement intéressant pour ces nouvelles particules est celui entre 140 et 493 MeV/c^2, qui est accessible avec les expériences actuelles, en particulier avec le détecteur proche ND280 de l'expérience T2K, expérience d'oscillation des neutrinos située au Japon.L'analyse vise à isoler un échantillon de désintégrations de neutrinos lourds dans ND280, après leur production dans la désintégration de kaons chargés dans le faisceau de T2K. Le bruit de fond provenant d'interactions de neutrinos a été réduit à quelques événements dans l'ensemble des données de T2K (2010-2017), ce qui permet de contraindre l'espace des paramètres des neutrinos lourds de manière compétitive par rapport aux expériences dédiées comme PS191.Une des étapes importantes de l'analyse consiste à valider les algorithmes de reconstruction et les simulations du bruit de fond attendu, ce qui a nécessité d'étudier les interactions de neutrinos actifs dans les murs des TPCs; Cet échantillon a également pu être utilisé pour des études de physique.Un dernier travail effectué durant cette thèse concerne la mise à niveau du détecteur ND280, prévue d'ici 2021, dans le but d'augmenter la précision des mesures de section efficace d'interaction des neutrinos afin d'améliorer les analyses des oscillations.

Abstract

This white paper provides a comprehensive review of our present understanding of experimental neutrino anomalies that remain unresolved, charting the progress achieved over the last decade at the experimental and phenomenological level, and sets the stage for future programmatic prospects in addressing those anomalies. It is purposed to serve as a guiding and motivational "encyclopedic" reference, with emphasis on needs and options for future exploration that may lead to the ultimate resolution of the anomalies. We see the main experimental, analysis, and theory-driven thrusts that will be essential to achieving this goal being: 1) Cover all anomaly sectors -- given the unresolved nature of all four canonical anomalies, it is imperative to support all pillars of a diverse experimental portfolio, source, reactor, decay-at-rest, decay-in-flight, and other methods/sources, to provide complementary probes of and increased precision for new physics explanations; 2) Pursue diverse signatures -- it is imperative that experiments make design and analysis choices that maximize sensitivity to as broad an array of these potential new physics signatures as possible; 3) Deepen theoretical engagement -- priority in the theory community should be placed on development of standard and beyond standard models relevant to all four short-baseline anomalies and the development of tools for efficient tests of these models with existing and future experimental datasets; 4) Openly share data -- Fluid communication between the experimental and theory communities will be required, which implies that both experimental data releases and theoretical calculations should be publicly available; and 5) Apply robust analysis techniques -- Appropriate statistical treatment is crucial to assess the compatibility of data sets within the context of any given model., Contribution to Snowmass 2021 by the NF02 Topical Group (Understanding Experimental Neutrino Anomalies).

Abstract

By constantly monitoring at least one complete hemisphere of the sky, neutrino telescopes are well designed to detect neutrinos emitted by transient astrophysical events. Real-time searches with the ANTARES telescope have been performed to look for neutrino candidates coincident with gamma-ray bursts detected by the Swift and Fermi satellites, highenergy neutrino events registered by IceCube, transient events from blazars monitored by HAWC, photon-neutrino coincidences by AMON notices and gravitational wave candidates observed by LIGO/Virgo. By requiring temporal coincidence, this approach increases the sensitivity and the significance of a potential discovery. Thanks to the good angular accuracy of neutrino candidates reconstructed with the ANTARES telescope, a coincident detection can also improve the positioning area of non-well localised triggers such as those detected by gravitational wave interferometers. This paper summarises the results of the follow-up performed by the ANTARES telescope between 01/2014 and 02/2022, which corresponds to the end of the data taking period., Comment: 21 pages, 10 figures, submit to JCAP
