NEXT (Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC) is a neutrinoless double beta decay experiment located at the Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc (LSC, Spain). Its aim is to demonstrate that the neutrino is a Majorana particle by detecting the neutrinoless double beta decay process in xenon gas enriched in the $^{136}$Xe isotope. The detector technology used in NEXT is that of radiopure high...

Water Cherenkov neutrino experiments have played a crucial role in neutrino discoveries over the years, and provide a well established and affordable way to instrument large target masses. The largest uncertainty in the most recent T2K oscillation results are from the Super-Kamiokande detector systematic errors in the oscillated event samples. As neutrino experiments move from discovery to...

ARIADNE, a state-of-the-art 1-ton dual-phase Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LAr TPC), features a game-changing photographic readout utilising ultra-fast photon sensitive TPX3 cameras to image the secondary scintillation light produced in THGEM holes. ARIADNE underwent testing at the T9 beam line, CERN East Area. ARIADNE is the first dual-phase LAr TPC with photographic capabilities to...

The plastic scintillator detectors are widely used in high-energy physics, in particular in neutrino experiments.They can provide very good particle identification, sub-nanosecond time resolutions, full 3D geometrical acceptance and particle tracking and, at the same time, enough neutrino target mass to minimise the statistical uncertainties.In order to improve the knowledge of neutrino...

In view of the J-PARC program of upgrades of the beam intensity, the T2K collaboration is preparing towards an increase of the exposure aimed at establishing leptonic CP violation at 3 $\sigma$ level for a significant fraction of the possible $\delta_{CP}$ values. To reach this goal, an upgrade of the T2K near detector ND280 will be installed at J-PARC in 2022, with the aim of reducing the...

With the addition of 0.02% Gd sulphate to its water in summer 2020, the Super-Kamiokande experiment entered a new phase: SK-Gd. This Gd doping allows for far greater sensitivity to the detection of neutrons emitted in inverse beta decay than with just pure water. This is thanks to gadolinium’s clear neutron capture signal and large neutron capture cross section. This long-awaited chapter in...

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) will use large liquid argon (LAr) detector consisting of four modules, each with a fiducial mass of 10 ktons of LAr. One of the technology options for the far detector modules is a liquid-argon Time Projection Chamber (TPC) working in Dual-Phase mode. In a Dual-Phase TPC, ionization charge deposited in the liquid argon... -

DUNE is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment that will take data in a wide-band neutrino beam at Fermilab in the latter half of the 2020s. The experiment is planning to build a very capable near detector to facilitate the high precision extraction of oscillation parameters. Part of the mission of the near detector is to acquire powerful data sets that can be used to constrain the...

The DUNE experiment will be a large LAr detector located at a baseline of 1300 kilometers,1.5 km deep underground. It is planned to be made up of four modules, each with a total mass of 17 kt of LAr, at least the first two of which will...
