Baryon Number Violation Searches in DUNE

Abstract

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an international project that will study neutrinos and search for phenomena predicted by theories Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). DUNE will use a 70-kton liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) located more than a kilometer underground. The bubble chamber like imaging capabilities of the LArTPC technology, in addition to the large size and underground location, allow the experiment to probe many types of rare processes. This poster will summarize DUNE’s sensitivity to the baryon number violating processes of nucleon decay with p→K^+ ν ̅ and n→n ̅ oscillations.
