Matter Density Profile Shape Effects at DUNE
read the original abstract
Quantum mechanical interactions between neutrinos and matter along the path of propagation, the Wolfenstein matter effect, are of particular importance for the upcoming long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, specifically the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). Here, we explore specifically what about the matter density profile can be measured by DUNE, considering both the shape and normalization of the profile between the neutrinos' origin and detection. Additionally, we explore the capability of a perturbative method for calculating neutrino oscillation probabilities and whether this method is suitable for DUNE. We also briefly quantitatively explore the ability of DUNE to measure the Earth's matter density, and the impact of performing this measurement on measuring standard neutrino oscillation parameters.

Earth-Density Effects in Long Baseline Neutrino Experiments
Realistic Earth density profiles introduce energy-dependent structures in neutrino oscillation probabilities that path-averaged models miss, potentially biasing CP phase inference in long-baseline experiments.
