We investigate the capability of the DUNE Near Detector (ND) to constrain Non Standard Interaction parameters (NSI) describing the production of neutrinos ($varepsilon_{alphabeta}^s$) and their detection ($varepsilon_{alphabeta}^d$). We show that the DUNE ND is able to reject a large portion of the parameter space allowed by DUNE Far Detector analyses and to set the most stringent bounds from accelerator neutrino experiments on $|varepsilon_{mu e}^{s,d}|$ for wide intervals of the related phases. We also provide simple analytic understanding of our results as well as a numerical study of their dependence on the systematic errors, showing that the DUNE ND offers a clean environment where to study source and detector NSI.

While the QCD axion is often considered to be necessarily light ($lesssim$ eV), recent work has opened a viable and interesting parameter space for heavy axions, which solve both the Strong CP and the axion Quality Problems. These well-motivated heav
y axions, as well as the generic axion-like-particles, call for explorations in the GeV mass realm at collider and beam dump environments. The primary upcoming neutrino experiment, Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), is simultaneously also a powerful beam dump experiment, enabled by its multipurpose Near Detector (ND) complex. In this study, we show with detailed analyses that the DUNE ND has a unique sensitivity to heavy axions for masses between $20$ MeV and $2$ GeV, complementary to other future experiments.
The low-energy $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry is well-motivated as part of beyond Standard Model physics related to neutrino mass generation. We show that a light $B-L$ gauge boson $Z{}$ and the associated $U(1)_{B-L}$-breaking scalar $varphi$ can both
be effectively searched for at high-intensity facilities such as the near detector complex of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). Without the scalar $varphi$, the $Z{}$ can be probed at DUNE up to mass of 1 GeV, with the corresponding gauge coupling $g_{BL}$ as low as $10^{-9}$. In the presence of the scalar $varphi$ with gauge coupling to $Z{}$, the DUNE capability of discovering the gauge boson $Z{}$ can be significantly improved, even by one order of magnitude in $g_{BL}$, due to additional production from the decay $varphi to Z{}Z{}$. The DUNE sensitivity is largely complementary to other long-lived $Z{}$ searches at beam-dump facilities such as FASER and SHiP, as well as astrophysical and cosmological probes. On the other hand, the prospects of detecting $varphi$ itself at DUNE are to some extent weakened in presence of $Z{}$, compared to the case without the gauge interaction.
Adding right-handed neutrinos to the Standard Model is a natural and simple extension and is well motivated on both the theoretical and the experimental side. We extend the Standard Model by adding only one right-handed Majorana neutrino and study th
e sensitivity of the Near Detector of the DUNE experiment to the new physics parameters, namely the mixing parameters $|U_{e 4}|^2$ and $|U_{mu 4}|^2$ and the mass $m_N$. The study relies on searches of the products of right-handed neutrino decays, which is possible thanks to an extremely intense beam and a state-of-the-art detection technology. This type of direct test is carried out with very few assumptions and in an almost-completely model-independent way, providing thus a strong result. A background analysis is also performed, simulating the detector performance to particle identification. It is found that the existing bounds in the MeV-range can be improved by one order of magnitude in different detection channels.
The planned DUNE experiment will have excellent sensitivity to the vector and axial couplings of the electron to the $Z$-boson via precision measurements of neutrino--electron scattering. We investigate the sensitivity of DUNE-PRISM, a movable near d
etector in the direction perpendicular to the beam line, and find that it will qualitatively impact our ability to constrain the weak couplings of the electron. We translate these neutrino--electron scattering measurements into a determination of the weak mixing angle at low scales and estimate that, with seven years of data taking, the DUNE near-detector can be used to measure $sin^2theta_W$ with about 2% precision. We also discuss the impact of combining neutrino--electron scattering data with neutrino trident production at DUNE-PRISM.
One proposed component of the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) near detector complex is a multi-purpose, magnetized, gaseous argon time projection chamber: the Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD). We explore the new-physics potential of
the MPD, focusing on scenarios in which the MPD is significantly more sensitive to new physics than a liquid argon detector, specifically searches for semi-long-lived particles that are produced in/near the beam target and decay in the MPD. The specific physics possibilities studied are searches for dark vector bosons mixing kinetically with the Standard Model hypercharge group, leptophilic vector bosons, dark scalars mixing with the Standard Model Higgs boson, and heavy neutral leptons that mix with the Standard Model neutrinos. We demonstrate that the MPD can extend existing bounds in most of these scenarios. We illustrate how the ability of the MPD to measure the momentum and charge of the final state particles leads to these bounds.
