Abstract
Monitored neutrino beams are a novel technology designed to providemeasurements of the neutrino cross sections at GeV scale with a total uncertainty ofO(1%), thus improving by one order of magnitude current experimental estimates.The ENUBET project is close to proving for the first time the feasibility of thisconcept and the Collaboration is preparing a proposal for a new neutrino beam atCERN based on the SPS accelerator and the ProtoDUNEs neutrino detectors thatare already operative at the North Experimental Area. In this contribution, wediscuss the final design of the horn-less transfer line and the instrumented decaytunnel which allows us to measure the charged leptons associated with neutrinosfrom kaon decays. Finally, we discuss the expected physics performance using theSPS accelerator and the ProtoDUNE-SP neutrino detector and future perspectivesfor the implementation of the entire facility at CERN North Area.
