Coherent Neutrino Nucleus Scattering (CNNS) is predicted by the Standard Model but hasn’t been measured yet. A good background discrimination and shielding is essential for the achievement of a prospective experiment. We show the results of simulations for background discrimination and suppression using a myon veto system in combination with a shielding around a cryostat.

With CNNS, the expected nuclear recoil energy for reactor anti-neutrinos is in the range of ≲ 4 keV. Thus a calibration source within this energy region is necessary. Two different methods to create fluorescence will be discussed and measured energy spectra will be shown. Finally results of an improved fluorescence x-ray source with nine clearly separated energy lines between ∼1 keV and 6.5 keV will be shown.

This work has been supported by funds of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG (Transregio 27: Neutrinos and Beyond), the Excellence Cluster (Origin and Structure of the Universe) and the Maier-Leibnitz-Laboratorium (Garching).
