Long-baseline neutrino oscillations hold the key to understanding the crucial open questions in neutrino physics: what is the neutrino mass ordering and is the Charge-Parity(CP) symmetry violated in the lepton sector. The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is being constructed at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in South Dakota to adress these very questions. It will...
T2K is an accelerator neutrino experiment conducted in Japan, which studies of oscillations from muon (anti)neutrinos disappearance and electron (anti)neutrinos appearance at a distance of 295 km between the set of near detectors (at J-PARC) and the far detector SuperKamiokande (SK, at Kamioka). It has already provided world-leading measurements of the two oscillation parameters: θ23 mixing...
The Borexino has recently reported the first experimental evidence of neutrinos from the CNO cycle. Since this process accounts only for about 1% of the total energy production in the Sun, the associated neutrino flux is extremely low as compared with the one from the pp-chain, the dominant process of hydrogen burning. This experimental evidence of the CNO neutrinos was obtained using the...
The GERDA experiment, located in the underground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy, has been designed to search for the neutrinoless double-beta (0vbb) decay in 76Ge. It used in different stages of the project up to 44 kg of high purity germanium (HPGe) detectors enriched up to about 86% in the isotope 76Ge. The bare detectors were operated in liquid argon, which served in the first...
