Operation of an archaeological lead PbWO$_4$ crystal to search for neutrinos from astrophysical sources with a Transition Edge Sensor [PDF]
, 2021 The experimental detection of the CE$\nu$NS allows the investigation of neutrinos and neutrino sources with all-flavor sensitivity. Given its large content in neutrons and stability, Pb is a very appealing choice as target element. The presence of the radioisotope $^{210}$Pb (T$_{1/2}\sim$22 yrs) makes natural Pb unsuitable for low-background, low ...
