Descripción

The neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering (CEνNS), known as CEνNS, has the highest cross-section among all interaction channels for MeV neutrinos, making it the most promising way of remote monitoring and detection of nuclear reactors. The biggest challenges are lowering the energy threshold to keV and sub-keV and mitigating the cosmogenic background in a sea-level detector. A liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXeTPC) is one of the most promising technologies for CEvNS search, thanks to its well-established low background and energy threshold. These advantages make LXeTPCs the leading technology in the search for WIMP dark matter. The RELICS (REactor neutrino LIquid xenon Coherent Scattering experiment) experiment aims at reactor CEνNS detection using an LXeTPC. In this talk, I will introduce the RELICS experiment with a focus on its status and discovery potential for CEvNS signals from reactor neutrinos.
