In view of the great interest in liquid argon neutrino detectors, the ⁴⁰Ar(γ,γ')⁴⁰Ar reaction was revisited to guide a calculation of the neutral current neutrino cross section at supernova energies. Using the nuclear resonance fluorescence technique with a monoenergetic, 99% linearly polarized photon beam, in this work we report a three-fold increase in magnetic dipole strength at around 10 MeV in ⁴⁰Ar. Based on shell-model calculations, and using the experimentally identified transitions, the neutral current neutrino cross sections for low-energy reactions on ⁴⁰Ar are calculated.
