Abstract
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$\nu$NS) offers a unique way to study neutrino properties and to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model. The NUCLEUS experiment aims at measuring the CE$\nu$NS signal from reactor antineutrinos using newly developed cryogenic detectors with ultra-low recoil energy threshold. The experiment is currently under construction for a blank assembly and later planned to be installed in between the two 4.25 GW$_{\text{th}}$ nuclear reactors of the Chooz B power plant in the French Ardennes.
This proceeding presents an overview of the first phase of the NUCLEUS experiment. A general description of the experimental apparatus and its expected sensitivity to the CE$\nu$NS is provided.
