Parallel talks 4: Neutrino Physics
- Shaobo Wang (Shanghai Jiao Tong University)
Neutrinos elastically scattering off atomic electrons is a purely leptonic
process whose cross section can be precisely calculated in the standard
model. A measurement of this process can provide an in-situ constraint
to the absolute neutrino flux in an accelerator-based $\nu_\mu$ beam. NOvA is
a long-baseline neutrino experiment optimized to observe the oscillation
of $\nu_\mu$ to...
Low background germanium detectors with excellent energy resolution are advantageous to search for $^{76}$Ge neutrinoless double beta decay process. We proposed an experimental program, CDEX-300$\nu$, using $^{76}$Ge enriched broad energy germanium detectors at China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL). In this talk, I will focus on the preconceptual design and plan of the CDEX-300$\nu$. The...
LEGEND-200, the first phase of the Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless double beta Decay, has recently started physics operations at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory. LEGEND will have unmatched discovery power in the field, potentially enabling the discovery that lepton number is not a fundamental symmetry in nature and that neutrinos are their own antiparticles. This talk...
The discovery of neutrinoless double beta decay (0vbb) would firmly establish the Majorana nature of the neutrino mass and provide unequivocal evidence of lepton number non-conservation, a clear signature of physics beyond the Standard Model. The nEXO experiment is a monolithic cylindrical time projection chamber (TPC) with 5 tonnes of liquid xenon enriched to 90% in the isotope 136Xe aim to...
