ντ-physics with the SHiP experiment — •Daniel Bick, Stefan Bieschke, Joachim Ebert, Caren Hagner, and Walter Schmidt-Parzefall — Universität Hamburg, Institut für Experimentalphysik, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg
SHiP stands for Search for Hidden Particles and is a recently proposed new general-purpose fixed target facility at the SPS at CERN. The main aim is the search for hidden particles predicted by different models capable of explaining dark matter, neutrino masses or the origin of baryon asymmetry in the Universe. Furthermore, a huge number of (τ-)neutrinos will be produced at such a facility making it an ideal place for ντ-physics and thus giving the opportunity for a measurement of the τ-neutrino cross-sections or a first-time experimental evidence of the anti-τ-neutrino.
This talk will give an overview of the neutrino experiment at the SHiP experiment. An emphasis is given to the reconstruction of muons from interactions in the neutrino target using a magnetic spectrometer.
