PTOLEMY aims to measure the lowest neutrino mass by resolving the ฮฒ-decay endpoint of tritium. A demonstrator, currently under construction at LNGS, will rely on amassing a solid-state source of atomic tritium; a cyclotron radiation-based background suppression system; a novel, compact EM filter; and an O(50meV)-precision spectrometer. PTOLEMY faces many novel technical challenges, and an...

Plastic scintillator detectors with 3D granularity and sub-nanosecond time resolution offer simultaneous particle tracking, identification, and calorimetry. However, achieving fine segmentation at scale remains a major challenge due to high manufacturing costs, extended production timelines, and stringent precision requirements. To overcome these barriers, the 3DET R&D collaboration has...

Hyper-Kamiokande will start collecting accelerator neutrino data in 2028 to search for leptonic CP violation. The largest systematic uncertainty, $\Delta (\sigma_{{\nu}_e}/\sigma_{\bar{\nu}_e})$, is related to the ratio between the electron neutrino and antineutrino cross section. A not proper modeling could generate an ambiguous asymmetry in the ratio between the $\nu_{\mu} \to \nu_e$ and...
