νOscillation: a software package for computation and simulation of neutrino propagation and interaction
arxiv(2024)
摘要
The behavior of neutrinos is the only phenomenon that cannot be explained by
the standard model of particle physics. Because of these mysterious neutrino
interactions observed in nature, at present, there is growing interest in this
field and ongoing or planned neutrino experiments are seeking solutions to this
mystery very actively. The design of neutrino experiments and the analysis of
neutrino data rely on precise computations of neutrino oscillations and
scattering processes in general. Motivated by this, we developed a software
package that calculates neutrino production and oscillation in nuclear
reactors, neutrino-electron scattering of solar neutrinos, and the oscillation
of neutrinos from radioactive isotopes for the search of sterile neutrinos.
This software package is validated by reproducing the result of calculations
and observations in other publications. We also demonstrate the feasibility of
this package by calculating the sensitivity of a liquid scintillator detector,
currently in planning, to the sterile neutrinos. This work is expected to be
used in designs of future neutrino experiments.
