A large-scale neutrino observatory based on Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS) will be excellently suited for a measurement of the Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background (DSNB). The WbLS technique offers high signal efficiency and effective suppression otherwise overwhelming background from neutral-current interactions atmospheric neutrinos. To illustrate this, we investigate DSNB sensitivity two configurations future Theia detector by developing expected rejection efficiencies along full...
The Serappis (SEarch for RAre PP-neutrinos In Scintillator) project aims at a precision measurement of the flux solar $pp$ neutrinos on few-percent level. Such will be relevant contribution to study neutrino oscillation parameters and sensitive test luminosity constraint. concept relies small organic liquid scintillator detector ($\sim$20 m$^3$) with excellent energy resolution ($\sim$2.5 % 1 MeV), low internal background sufficient shielding from surrounding radioactivity. This can achieved...
