Abstract

Neutrino scattering at low energies is essential for a variety of timely applications potentially having fundamental implications, e.g. unraveling unknown neutrino properties, such as the third neutrino mixing angle, the detection of the diffuse supernova neutrino background, or of cosmological neutrinos and furnishing a new constraint to double-beta decay calculations. Here we discuss some applications, the present status and the perspectives.
