The goal of the ENUBET project is to develop the first monitored neutrino beam, where the neutrino flux can be measured with a 1% precision, in order to carry out measurements of high precision of the neutrino cross section in the energy range of relevance for HyperKamiokande and DUNE. The systematic uncertainties are suppressed by detecting, in an instrumented decay tunnel, the large-angle leptons generated in the K+ e3 three body decay K+ → e+π0νe . [...]

The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a novel gaseous detector designed for precise timing resolution in experimental measurements. It eliminates time jitter from charged particles in ionization gaps by using extreme UV Cherenkov light emitted in a crystal, detected by a Micromegas photodetector with an appropriate photocathode.

Monitored neutrino beams are a novel technology designed to provide measurements of the neutrino cross sections at GeV scale with a total uncertainty of O(1%), thus improving by one order of magnitude current experimental estimates. The ENUBET project is close to proving for the first time the feasibility of this concept and the Collaboration is preparing a proposal for a new neutrino beam at CERN based on the SPS accelerator and the ProtoDUNEs neutrino detectors that are already operative at the North Experimental Area.
