Parallel talks 1: Neutrino Physics
- Xiang Xiao (Sun Yat-Sen University)
The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) is the first bolometric experiment searching for 0νββ decay that has been able to reach the one-tonne mass scale. The detector, located at the LNGS in Italy, consists of an array of 988 TeO2 crystals arranged in a compact cylindrical structure of 19 towers. CUORE began its first physics data run in 2017 at a base temperature of...
Detection of neutrinoless double-beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) would be an evidence of Majorana nature of neutrino, which clue on the extremely light neutrino mass and the matter dominant universe.
The KamLAND-Zen experiment started a search for $0\nu\beta\beta$ of $^{136}$Xe nuclei in 2011 (KamLAND-Zen400). The experiment was upgraded in 2019 by double amount of xenon nuclei and a tenfold...
Searching for the neutrinoless double beta decay (0𝜈𝛽𝛽) in experiment is now regarded as the topmost promising instrument to explore the nature of neutrinos. Many international collaborations search for this rare nuclear decay through different detector techniques. In China, the CDEX and PandaX experiments at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL) have carried out the 0𝜈𝛽𝛽 search...
Neutrinoless double-beta decay (0$\nu\beta\beta$) is a key process to address some of the major outstanding issues in particle physics, such as the lepton number conservation and the Majorana nature of the neutrino. Several efforts have taken place in the last decades in order to reach higher and higher sensitivity on its half-life. The next-generation of experiments aims at covering the...
