The IsoDAR Experiment

ORAL

Abstract

The IsoDAR experiment will utilize a novel, compact cyclotron capable of delivering 10 mA of 60 MeV protons in combination with a production target to create a very pure, isotropic antineutrino source, with peak energy around 6 MeV and endpoint around 15 MeV. Paired with a kiloton-scale detector like the planned Liquid Scintillator Counter (LSC) at Yemilab in South Korea, IsoDAR will perform searches for sterile neutrinos, neutrino decay, quantum-mechanical wavepacket effects, non-standard neutrino interactions, new low-mass mediators and axion-like particles---studies that are well-motivated from both a theoretical and experimental standpoint. This talk will focus on the IsoDAR physics program and the current status of the overall project.
