Description

Large target masses and ultra-low background levels are now becoming commonplace for xenon-based rare event searches. As a result, current and future experiments will have unprecedented sensitivity to astrophysical neutrinos in multiple interaction channels. In this talk I will provide a brief overview of relevant neutrino sources and their interaction channels in xenon-based experiments while highlighting a subset of physics studies that can be carried out using neutrinos as a signal.
