The study of {nu}{sub e}e{sup -} scattering with neutrino source

Abstract

The possibility of using a radioactive source to study the {nu}{sub e}e{sup -} scattering is discussed. In order to have a strong signal in a 100 gr/cm{sup 2} thick liquid scintillator surrounding the source and in order to be sensitive to a low magnetic moment of the neutrino the threshold on the electron recoil energy has to be set very low, around 200 keV. This has two consequences: a huge experimental setup and a big active volume, where the expected signal due to {sup 8}Be solar neutrinos is as high as the one produced by a large magnetic moment of the neutrinos from source.
