Description
The SND@LHC experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is a new neutrino scattering experiment, that got approved and installed in 2021.
We report the direct observation of muon neutrino interactions with the SND@LHC detector using a dataset of proton-proton collisions at 13.6 TeV collected in 2022 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.8 fb−1. The search is based on information from the active electronic components of the SND@LHC detector, which covers the pseudorapidity region of 7.2 < η < 8.4, inaccessible to the other experiments at the collider.
We will discuss further physics prospects of SND@LHC, as well as future plans for an upgraded version of the experiment for the high-luminosity LHC running, planned for end if this decade.
