Spatial and Temporal Evaluations of the Liquid Argon Purity in ProtoDUNE-SP
Liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) rely on highly pure argon to ensure that ionization electrons produced by charged particles reach readout arrays. ProtoDUNE Single-Phase (ProtoDUNE-SP) was an approximately 700-ton liquid argon detector intended to prototype the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) Far Detector Horizontal Drift module. It contains two drift volumes bisected by the cathode plane assembly, which is biased to create an almost uniform electric field in both vol…

Impact of improved energy resolution on DUNE sensitivity in presence of a light sterile neutrino
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) primarily aims to measure the yet unknown parameters of the standard three neutrino framework, i.e., the determination of Dirac CP phase ($δ_{13}$), neutrino mass hierarchy (MH) and octant of $θ_{23}$. In the present work, we consider the standard three neutrino paradigm (referred to as the $(3+0)$ case) and beyond with an additional light sterile neutrino (referred to as the $(3+1)$ case). We consider two configurations : standard energy resolu…

The Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment (DUNE), Version 2.10
Version 2.10 of the Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment DUNE introduces a range of enhancements across its core and extension modules, with a continued emphasis on modern C++ integration and improved usability. This release extends support for C++20 features, particularly concepts, through comprehensive refinements in dune-common and dune-grid, enabling safer and more expressive generic programming paradigms. A notable advancement is the improved support for curved geometries, includin…

Lifetime study of the ColdADC for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment
ColdADC is a custom ASIC digitizer implemented in 65 nm CMOS technology using specialized techniques for long-term reliability in cryogenic environments. ColdADC was developed for use in the DUNE Far Detector complex, which will consist of four liquid argon time projection chambers. Each contains 17 kilotons liquid argon as the target material in order to measure neutrino oscillations. Approximately 40,000 ColdADC ASICs will be installed for DUNE in the first two large detectors and will be ope…

A comparative study of physics capabilities of a liquid argon and a water based liquid scintillator at DUNE
We present a comprehensive comparison of the physics sensitivities of a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) and a Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS) detector, considering their potential deployment as the fourth far detector module in the DUNE facility. Using GLoBES-based simulations, we evaluate their performance in measuring standard neutrino oscillation parameters ($θ_{23}, δ_{13}$ and $Δm^{2}_{31}$), both in standard 3-neutrino case, as well as in presence of new physics sc…

Millikelvin-precision temperature sensing for advanced cryogenic detectors
Precise temperature monitoring -- to the level of a few milli-Kelvin -- is essential for the operation of large-scale cryostats requiring a recirculation system. In particular, the performance of Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers -- such as those planned for the DUNE experiment -- strongly relies on proper argon purification and mixing, which can be characterized by a sufficiently dense grid of high-precision temperature probes. In this article, we present a novel technique for the cross-ca…

Tau Tridents at Accelerator Neutrino Facilities
We present the first detailed study of Standard Model neutrino tridents involving tau leptons at the near detectors of accelerator neutrino facilities. The rates of these processes were previously thought to be negligible, even at future facilities. Our full $2\to 4$ calculation, including both coherent and incoherent scatterings, reveals that the DUNE near detector could observe a considerable number of tau tridents, which is an important background to new physics searches. We identify promisi…

Readout electronics for low occupancy High-Pressure Gas TPCs
HPgTPCs have benefits such as low energy threshold, magnetisability, and 4$π$ acceptance, making them ideal for neutrino experiments such as DUNE. We present the design of an FPGA-based solution optimised for ND-GAr, which is part of the Phase-II more capable near detector for DUNE. These electronics reduce the cost significantly compared to using collider readout electronics which are typically designed for much higher occupancy and therefore, for example, need much larger numbers of FPGAs an…
