Abstract

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 kton multi-purpose\nunderground liquid scintillator detector, was proposed with the determination\nof the neutrino mass hierarchy as a primary physics goal. It is also capable of\nobserving neutrinos from terrestrial and extra-terrestrial sources, including\nsupernova burst neutrinos, diffuse supernova neutrino background, geoneutrinos,\natmospheric neutrinos, solar neutrinos, as well as exotic searches such as\nnucleon decays, dark matter, sterile neutrinos, etc. We present the physics\nmotivations and the anticipated performance of the JUNO detector for various\nproposed measurements. By detecting reactor antineutrinos from two power plants\nat 53-km…
