Limits on the neutrino magnetic moment from the MUNU experiment


Daraktchieva, Z; Lamblin, J; Link, O; Amsler, C; Avenier, M; Broggini, C; Busto, J; Cerna, C; Gervasio, G; Jeanneret, P; Jonkmans, G; Koang, D H; Lebrun, D; Ould-Saada, F; Puglierin, G; Stutz, A; Tadsen, A; Vuilleumier, J-L (2003). Limits on the neutrino magnetic moment from the MUNU experiment. Physics Letters B, 564(3-4):190-198.

Abstract

The MUNU experiment was carried out at the Bugey nuclear power reactor. The aim was the study of ¯!ee− elastic scattering
at low energy. The recoil electrons were recorded in a gas time projection chamber, immersed in a tank filled with liquid
scintillator serving as veto detector, suppressing in particular Compton electrons. The measured electron recoil spectrum is
presented. Upper limits on the neutrino magnetic moment were derived and are discussed.
