DESIGNED TO BE MODULAR:
Fast ‘back of the envelope’ approach to establish broad features of DUNE’s ability and DAQ requirements to capture neutrinos from a SN. Many questions and assumptions still to be addressed.

Galactic Neighbourhood Coverage, Fake Trigger Rate 1/Month
Conclusion: can trigger on nearby SN easily. However, capturing the 1/5 of SN coming from LMC requires more work and is more dependent on our assumptions (e.g. hard to model neutron bkg). Assuming a fake burst trigger rate of 1/month, what is our SN sensitivity vs. distance? Close SN, easy to trigger Galaxy edge, harder to trigger
Require larger clusters to increase sensitivity
