Neutrino Physics: Neutrino Physics
- Fairouz Malek (LPSC-Grenoble, CNRS and UGA, France)
The first direct neutrino measurements at the Large Hadron Collider, CERN, have recently been published following a year of data taking of two new small forward detectors, FASER(ν) and SND@LHC. These experiments use both electronic and emulsion based detector components for the measurement of neutrino interactions and long lived particles produced in the very forward region of the...
Deep underground laboratories provide a unique “radiation free” environment for broad range of fundamental and applied research and development, e.g. double beta decay, dark matter detection, innovative detector technologies, radiobiology, geoscience or climatology.
Experiments in deep underground laboratories could be divided into two main groups – i) leading activities in the field...
The search for neutrinoless double beta decay could cast light on one critical piece missing in our knowledge i.e. the nature of the neutrino mass. Its observation is indeed the most sensitive experimental way to prove that neutrino is a Majorana particle. The observation of such a potentially rare process demands a detector with an excellent energy resolution, an extremely low radioactivity,...
Neutrinos remain the most mysterious fundamental particles despite the enormous success accomplished in neutrino physics over the past two decades. The subjects of primary interest are several undeniably basic questions concerning the nature, absolute mass scale, hierarchy, and CP properties of neutrinos and the possible existence of additional sterile neutrinos. The atomic nuclei, probes for...
