The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory — •Christoph Genster for the JUNO collaboration — IKP-2, Forschungszentrum Jülich

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a 20 kt liquid scintillator detector currently under construction near Kaiping in the province Guangdong in southern China. It will have an overburden of 1900 m.w.e. and will detect reactor antineutrinos from two nuclear power plants on a baseline of 53 km. Starting from 2020, JUNO plans to measure the neutrino mass ordering by probing the antineutrino energy spectrum. The energy resolution is designed to be better than 3% @ 1 MeV, in order to reach a significance of at least 3 sigma. In addition, JUNO can improve the precision on solar oscillation parameters below 1% and allows for the study of geoneutrinos and neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae. Furthermore, it has the potential to search for dark matter, sterile neutrinos, and non-standard interactions. This talk will give an overview on the physics potential and the current status of the project.
