Description

The ongoing Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) and the upcoming Hyper-Kamiokande (HK) and Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) are expected to detect the neutrinos in the Diffuse Supernova Background (DSNB). However, the DSNB signal is similar to neutrinos from the annihilation of dark matter at the MeV scale. We study the neutrino flux from dark matter annihilation and the possible ways to distinguish the signals.
