Sensitivity to eV-scale Neutrinos of Experiments at a Very Low Energy Neutrino Factory

Abstract

The results of LSND have yet to be confirmed at the $5\sigma$-level. An experiment is proposed utilizing a 3 GeV muon storage ring that would allow for both disappearance and appearance channels to be explored at short-baselines. The appearance channel could provide well over $5\sigma$ confirmation or rejection of the LSND result. Other physics could also be performed at such a facility such as the measurement of electron-neutrino cross sections. The sensitivity of experiments at a Very Low Energy Neutrino Factory (VLENF) to neutrinos at the eV-scale is presented.
