A novel concept for a anti nu_e Neutrino Factory

Abstract

The evolution of neutrino physics demands new schemes to produce intense, collimated and pure neutrino beams. The current neutrino factory concept implies the production, collection, and storage of muons to produce beams of muon and electron neutrinos at equal intensities at the same time. Research and development addressing its feasibility are still going on. In the current paper, we propose a new neutrino factory concept, that could possibly achieve beams of similar intensity, perfectly known energy spectrum and a single neutrino avour, electron anti- neutrino. The scheme relies on existing technology.
