## TL;DR

The CLEAR experiment aims to measure coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering at the SNS, providing tests of the Standard Model using the world's brightest neutrino source in the tens of MeV range.

## Contribution

It proposes a new experimental measurement of neutrino-nucleus scattering at the SNS, enhancing understanding of neutrino interactions and testing the Standard Model.

## Key findings

- Expected to improve neutrino interaction measurements
- Potential to test Standard Model predictions
- Utilizes the SNS as a unique neutrino source

## Abstract

The Spallation Neutron Source in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is designed to produce intense pulsed neutrons for various science and engineering applications. Copious neutrinos are a free by-product. When it reaches full power, the SNS will be the world's brightest source of neutrinos in the few tens of MeV range. The proposed CLEAR (Coherent Low Energy A (Nuclear) Recoils) experiment will measure coherent elastic neutral current neutrino-nucleus scattering at the SNS. The physics reach includes tests of the Standard Model.
