Description
The neutron facility of the European Spallation Source – ESS is currently undergoing construction and installation in Lund, Sweden with the goal to achieve a 5MW proton beam of 2 GeV Linear Accelerator (LINAC). This LINAC could also be used to produce an intense neutrino beam, which combined with a megaton water Cherenkov detector could observe CP violation in the leptonic sector for the first time. Such a neutrino experiment could help to understand the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe.
This project, called the ESS neutrino Super Beam plus (ESSνSB+) is a proposal to upgrade the ESS facility and accommodate for ESSνSB+ operations, with a new accumulator ring, a 2nd target station, a near detector and a far detector.
