Exploring coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering with NUCLEUS experiment

Abstract

The Nucleus experiment aims to measure the neutrino-nucleus coherent elastic scattering cross section exploiting cryogenic detectors equipped with TES. In this paper we report on the status of the project; we present the recent results achieved in the Long Background Run performed in the shallow underground laboratory UGL located at TUM University in Munich. The successful operation of the neutrinos target detectors in coincidence with the other sub detectors of the experiment (muon veto, germanium cryogenic outer veto) allowed us to move in 2025 in the final experimental site: the Very Near Site at the CHOOZ nuclear plant in France.
