Abstract: The detection of collider neutrinos will provide new insights about neutrino production, propagation, and interactions at TeV energies, the highest human-made energies ever observed. During Run 3 of the LHC, the FASER experiment is expected to detect roughly $10^4$ collider neutrinos using its emulsion-based neutrino detector FASER$\nu$. In this study, we show that, even without processing the emulsion data, low-level input provided by the electronic detector components of FASER and FASER$\nu$ will be able to establish a $5\sigma$ discovery of collider neutrinos with as little as $5~\text{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. These results foreshadow the possible early discovery of collider neutrinos in LHC Run 3.
