The upcoming MOLLER (Measurement Of a Lepton Lepton Electroweak Reaction) experiment at Jefferson Lab will provide a precision measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry in polarized electron-electron scattering. This should yield the most precise measurement of the weak mixing angle at low energy, and would be sensitive to new physics contributions in the interference between the neutral...
Acceleration of particle beams by induced wakefield in plasmas is a possible solution on a path to push the energy frontier of experimental high energy physics by constructing compact machines with acceleration rates in excess of GV/m. The Advanced Wakefield Experiment (AWAKE), a plasma wakefield acceleration experiment, driven by the 400 GeV proton beam from the CERN SPS synchrotron is unique...
The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) project is an essential upgrade to Fermilab’s particle accelerator complex to enable the world’s most intense neutrino beam for the international Long Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF)/Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), and a broad particle physics program for many decades to come. PIP-II will deliver 1.2 MW of proton beam power from the Main...
The Kamiokande, Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) and SNO+ experiments have established large-scale water Cherenkov detectors as powerful tools for the study of neutrinos and the search for new physics processes. Operating since 2009, the T2K experiment has used an accelerator source of neutrinos to study neutrino oscillations with the Super-K detector. In 2020, the successor to T2K and Super-K,...
Why there exists an asymmetry between matter and antimatter is one of the great mysteries in understanding the evolution of the universe. The discovery of neutrino oscillations by the SNO and Super-Kamiokande experiments opened up an avenue to explore the differences between neutrinos and antineutrinos, potentially shedding light on the mystery. Teasing out this small difference and...
