description

JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) is a 20 kton multipurpose neutrinodetector under construction in China and it will be completed in 2021. The detector will belocated near the the city of Jiangmen, 53 km away from two nuclear power plants that willprovide the neutrino flux for the main sear of the observatory. The main physics goal is the determination of the neutrino Mass Hierarchy, even if will play animportant also in other topics, such as: neutrino oscillation, solar neutrino, SuperNova neutrinos,geoneutrinos and atmosperic neutrinos among others
