Particle physics at the European Spallation Source

Presently under construction in Lund, Sweden, the European Spallation Source (ESS) will be the world’s brightest neutron source. As such, it has the potential for a particle physics program with a unique reach and which is complementary to that available at other facilities. This paper describes proposed particle physics activities for the ESS. Furthermore, these encompass the exploitation of both the neutrons and neutrinos produced at the ESS for high precision (sensitivity) measurements (searches).

Baby MIND detector first physics run

Baby MIND is a Magnetized Iron Neutrino Detector, serving as a downstream magnetized muon range detector for WAGASCI on the T2K beam line in Japan. The first physics run of Baby MIND together with other WAGASCI sub-detectors took place in the period from November 2019 to February 2020 (T2K run10), where a total of $4.8 \times 10^{20}$ Protons on target (POT) was delivered. Preliminary results showing Baby MIND data quality, detector performance and examples of neutrino interactions on iron during the first physics run are presented.
