ESSnuSB: Feasibility study for employing the uniquely powerful ESS linear accelerator to generate an intense neutrino beam for leptonic CP violation discovery and measurement ESSnuSB Design Study aims to prepare the ground for a neutrino facility in Europe to address the explanation for the existence of matter-antimatter asymmetry in the leptonic sector. The reasons behind the existence of this asymmetry will help to understand the antimatter disappearance in the Universe. The project will cover the feasibility of the required upgrade of the ESS proton linear accelerator currently under construction and the design and performance of the required accumulation ring, the neutrino facility target station and the near and far detectors.
