摘要
Neutrino magnetic moment (nu MM) is an important property of massive neutrinos. The recent anomalous excess at few keV electronic recoils observed by the XENON1T collaboration might indicate a similar to 2.2 x 10(-11)mu(B) effective neutrino magnetic moment (mu(eff)(nu)) from solar neutrinos. Therefore, it is essential to carry out the nu MM searches at a different experiment to confirm or exclude such a hypothesis. We study the feasibility of doing nu MM measurement with 4 kton fiducial mass at Jinping neutrino experiment (Jinping) using electron recoil data from both natural and artificial neutrino sources. The sensitivity of mu(eff)(nu) can reach < 1.2x10(-11)mu B at 90% C.L. with 10-year data taking of solar neutrinos. Besides the abundance of the intrinsic low energy background C-14 and Kr-85 in the liquid scintillator, we find the sensitivity to nu MM is highly correlated with the systematic uncertainties of pp and Kr-85. Reducing systematic uncertainties (pp and Kr-85) and the intrinsic background (C-14 and Kr-85) can help to improve sensitivities below these levels and reach the region of astrophysical interest. With a 3 mega-Curie (MCi) artificial neutrino source Cr-51 installed at Jinping neutrino detector for 55 days, it could give us a sensitivity to the electron neutrino magnetic moment (mu(nu e)) with < 1.1 x 10(-11)mu(B) at 90% C.L.. With the combination of those two measurements, the flavor structure of the neutrino magnetic moment can be also probed at Jinping.
