Description
The SNO+ Experiment is a versatile multipurpose neutrino detector situated at SNOLAB, with the primary goal of searching for neutrinoless double beta decay. After a successful operating phase as a water Cherenkov detector, the SNO+ target medium was switched to a liquid scintillator to increase the light yield of the detector, thereby enabling a much richer physics programme. In addition to ongoing measurements of reactor antineutrinos, solar neutrinos, geoneutrinos, supernova neutrinos, and other exotic phenomena, the SNO+ experiment is now preparing for a future phase capable of neutrinoless double beta decay. After presenting an overview of the detector and recent preliminary results, the upcoming physics capabilities of the experiment will be discussed.
