Abstract:
Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering(CEνNS) is a standard model neutrino interaction with energy down to keV level. It is predicted to have the largest cross-section, but only until 2017 was it first detected by the COHERENT collaboration. Nowadays multiple reactor CEνNS experiments are ongoing or under proposal, to probe the lowest energy bound of weak interactions. In this talk, I will provide an overview of the theoretical background and detection principles of CEνNS, followed by the status and the latest result of the CONUS experiment
