Description
Dual phase Xenon time projection chambers for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMP) dark matter (DM) detection strongly suppress electronic recoil background, making the detection of astro-neutrinos via coherent elastic scattering with Xe nucleus (CE$\nu$SN) possible. The sensitivities of New generation ton-scale WIMP DM detectors are approaching the named 'neutrino fog' formed by several sources of cosmic neutrinos: solar, atmospheric and from diffuse supernova background. With 5.9 tons of LXe, XENONnT is expected to detect for the first time CE$\nu$SN induced by $^8 $B neutrinos produced in the sun. In this talk, efforts ongoing to their detection will be overviewed, particularly the lowering of the detection threshold and the reduction of the background crucial to this purpose. Finally, simulation studies concerning CE$\nu$SN from the next galactic Core Collapse Supernova Neutrino (CCSN), as well as, charged current interactions induced from the last in the water muon and neutron vetos will be presented.
