Research activity
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a next-generation liquid-scintillator experiment located about 700 m underground in Jiangmen, China. Its central 20-kiloton detector, enclosed in a 35-meter acrylic sphere and read out by over 40,000 photomultiplier tubes, achieves an excellent energy resolution of < 3% at 1 MeV. JUNO is positioned roughly 53 km from the Yangjiang and Taishan nuclear power plants, a baseline optimized to observe the fine oscillation structure of reactor electron antineutrinos.
The experiment’s main goal is to determine the neutrino mass ordering by resolving interference patterns in the antineutrino energy spectrum arising from the mass-squared differences $\Delta m^{2}_{12}$ and $\Delta m^{2}_{31}$/$\Delta m^{2}_{32}$. JUNO will also deliver sub-percent precision on several oscillation parameters, significantly improving global measurements. In addition, its large volume and low background environment enable a broad physics program, including solar, geo-, atmospheric, and supernova neutrinos.
My work focuses on neutrino oscillation analysis for JUNO, where I model the reactor antineutrino spectrum, include detector response, and perform fits to extract oscillation parameters.
