First Experimental Limit on the Thermal Solar Neutrino Flux
Cecilia Ferrari, Gonzalo Herrera, Brooke Russell
The neutrino sky below 165\,keV is yet to be explored. This region provides a unique probe of stellar cooling mechanisms through the detection of thermal solar neutrinos and the lo…
Towards the Detection of Thermal Solar Neutrinos
Carlos A. Argüelles, Christopher V. Cappiello, P. S. Bhupal Dev +3
We show that keV thermal solar neutrinos, arising from electroweak processes in the solar plasma, are kinematically accessible to large-volume dark matter direct detection ex…
Clarity through the Neutrino Fog: Constraining New Forces in Dark Matter Detectors
Pablo Blanco-Mas, Pilar Coloma, Gonzalo Herrera +4
The PANDAX-4T and XENONnT experiments present indications of Coherent Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering (CENS) from B solar neutrinos at 2.6 and 2.7, respecti…
New Physics versus Quenching Factors in Coherent Neutrino Scattering
Yulun Li, Gonzalo Herrera, Patrick Huber
Recent results on the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CENS) on germanium present significant discrepancies among experiments. We perform a combined analysis of th…
Anapole moment of neutrinos and radioactive sources near liquid xenon detectors
Gonzalo Herrera, Patrick Huber
We show that placing a radioactive source such as Cr near a liquid xenon detector may allow to detect the contribution induced by the anapole moment to neutrino-electron s…
Probing New Physics from Neutrinos at Dark Matter Direct Detection Experiments
Gonzalo Herrera
Dark matter direct detection experiments have become excellent low-energy neutrino detectors. We present a few novel ideas to probe Beyond the Standard Model physics from neutrinos…
