Using neutrinos produced at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), the COHERENT collaboration has studied the Pb($\nu_e$,X$n$) process with a lead neutrino-induced-neutron (NIN) detector. Data from this detector are fit jointly with previously collected COHERENT data on this process. A combined analysis of the two datasets yields a cross section that is $0.29^{+0.17}_{-0.16}$ times that predicted by the MARLEY event generator using experimentally-measured Gamow-Teller strength distributions, consistent with no NIN events at 1.8$\sigma$. This is the first inelastic neutrino-nucleus process COHERENT has studied, among several planned exploiting the high flux of low-energy neutrinos produced at the SNS.

  1. Continuum contribution to charged-current absorption of low-energy $\nu_e$ on $^{40}$Ar

    hep-ph 2026-04 conditional novelty 4.0

    Hybrid HF-CRPA calculations predict lower allowed cross sections for charged-current ν_e on 40Ar at low energies, leading to ~20% fewer events in DUNE for a galactic supernova burst than the prior MARLEY model.
