SUMMARY:New results on coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering from CO
	HERENT
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Kate Scholberg\, Duke University\nHosted by: Christop
	her Grant\n\nPart of the HEE Seminar Series.\n\nCoherent elastic neutrino-n
	ucleus scattering (CEvNS) is a process in which a neutrino scatters off an 
	entire nucleus at low momentum transfer\, and for which the observable sign
	ature is a low-energy\nnuclear recoil.  It represents a background for dire
	ct dark matter detection experiments\, as well as a possible signal for ast
	rophysical neutrinos.  Furthermore\, because the process is cleanly predict
	ed in\nthe Standard Model\, a measurement is sensitive to beyond-the-Standa
	rd-Model physics\, such as non-standard interactions of neutrinos.  It was 
	measured for the first time by the COHERENT collaboration using the high-qu
	ality source of pion-decay-at-rest neutrinos from the Spallation Neutron So
	urce (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and a CsI[Na] scintillator dete
	ctor.  COHERENT has\nrecently observed CEvNS in argon\, a lighter nucleus\,
	 also.  This talk will describe COHERENT's recent results\, the status and 
	plans of COHERENT's suite of detectors at the SNS\, and future physics reac
