CONUS Experiment probes nucleus neutrino non standard interactions.

CONUS yesterday, released results on non standard neutrino interactions, Arxiv link. As usual they ignore axial-vector interaction. But they can limit vector interaction to 5*10^-5 force constant for low (<1Mev) mass mediates. If that maps exactly to axial vector, its limits a new force constant to half as much i my estimate, 10^-4 of the new interaction strength. However axial vector interaction seems to be weaker as the neutrino energy increase. CONUS's neutrinos top out 1.8MeV. I need to take the time to calculate how much weaker the neutrino scattering is at these energies.
