Potential for atmospheric neutrino physics with JUNO

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a next-generation neutrino experiment located in China, currently undergoing the commissioning phase. With 20 ktons of ultra-pure Liquid Scintillator (LS), JUNO seeks to make world leading measurements of three neutrino oscillation parameters and determining the Neutrino Mass Ordering (NMO). Even though it is designed to primarily use reactor neutrinos to this aim, JUNO will also be able to study neutrino oscillations using atmospheric neutrinos, which will provide a synergetic channel exploiting matter effects on neutrino oscillations. This talk will report the latest updates on the JUNO capabilities for atmospheric neutrino detection at GeV energies.
