The challenges of precision neutrino physics require measurements of absolute neutrino cross sections at the GeV scale with exquisite (1%) precision. This precision is presently limited by the uncertainties on neutrino flux at the source; their reduction by one order of magnitude can be achieved monitoring the positron production in the decay tunnel originating from the $K_{e3}$ decays of charged kaons in a sign and momentum selected narrow band beam. This novel technique enables the measurement of the most relevant cross sections for CP violation ($ u_e$ and $overline{ u}_e$) with a precision of 1% and requires a special instrumented beam-line. Such non-conventional beam-line will be developed in the framework of the ENUBET Horizon-2020 Consolidator Grant, recently approved by the European Research Council. The project, the first experimental results on ultra-compact calorimeters that can be embedded in the instrumented decay tunnel and the advances on the simulation of the beamline are presented. We also discuss the detector and accelerator activities that are planned in 2016-2021.
The ENUBET facility is a proposed narrow band neutrino beam where lepton production is monitored at single particle level in the instrumented decay tunnel. This facility addresses simultaneously the two most important challenges for the next generati
The narrow band beam of ENUBET is the first implementation of the monitored neutrino beam technique proposed in 2015. ENUBET has been designed to monitor lepton production in the decay tunnel of neutrino beams and to provide a 1% measurement of the n
The uncertainty in the initial neutrino flux is the main limitation for a precise determination of the absolute neutrino cross section. The ERC funded ENUBET project (2016-2021) is studying a facility based on a narrow band beam to produce an intense
The first phase of the long-baseline neutrino experiment, LBNE10, will use a broadband, high-energy neutrino beam with a 10-kt liquid argon TPC at 1300 km to study neutrino oscillation. In this paper, we describe potential upgrades to LBNE10 that use
Muon-neutrino elastic scattering on electrons is an observable neutrino process whose cross section is precisely known. Consequently a measurement of this process in an accelerator-based $ u_mu$ beam can improve the knowledge of the absolute neutrino
