Description
SNO+ is a multi-purpose, low-background neutrino detector located at SNOLAB, Canada. Currently filled with liquid scintillator, its physics programme includes measurements of solar, reactor, geo-, and potential supernova neutrinos. Preparations are underway to load natural tellurium into the scintillator to enable a search for neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) in tellurium-130. This talk will highlight recent physics results, present the status of ongoing measurements, and outline the roadmap for the next phase of the experiment. It will conclude with a discussion of SNO+’s projected sensitivity to 0νββ and the outlook for future experimental developments.
