Abstract

A recent new measurement and reanalysis of past measurements suggested an improved quenching factor value and uncertainty for CsI[Na]. This implies a measurement of the COHERENT experiment of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering that is closer to the Standard Model prediction and has less uncertainty. We illustrate the impact of this improvement by revisiting fits to the Weinberg angle, neutrino magnetic moments, neutron rms and neutrino charge radii, weak nuclear charge of the Cs nucleus, neutrino nonstandard interactions (in particular those relevant for LMA-Dark), and new scalar as well as vector bosons. Significant improvement is observed, particularly for those scenarios coherently affecting the electroweak SM process.
