  1. 17. Search for 0νββ with the Complete EXO-200 Dataset
    Ako Jamil (Yale University)
    5/12/22, 4:20 PM
    Double Beta Decay
    Oral

    The EXO-200 Collaboration searched for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) using a liquid xenon time projection chamber filled with ~150 kg of enriched $^{136}$Xe from September 2011 to December 2018. The use of a multi-dimensional analysis including calorimetric, spatial and topological information for the events allowed EXO-200 to perform one of the most sensitive searches for...

  2. 18. Searching for 0vbb Decay with High Pressure Xenon Gas Time Projection Chambers
    Leslie Rogers (argonne national laboratory)
    5/12/22, 4:45 PM
    Double Beta Decay
    Oral

    Finding evidence of neutrinoless double beta decay would reveal the Majorana nature of the neutrino and give insight into the origins of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe, the smallness of neutrino mass, and the symmetry structure of the Standard Model. The NEXT collaboration is developing a sequence of high pressure xenon gas time projection chambers with the aim of creating a...

  3. 68. Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay and the SNO+ Experiment
    Tereza Kroupova (University of Pennsylvania)
    5/12/22, 5:10 PM
    Double Beta Decay
    Oral

    SNO+ is a kilo-tonne scale low background neutrino detector with the primary goal of searching for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$). The experiment's target volume is currently filled with liquid scintillator, providing the scope for background characterisation as well as measurement of reactor, geo, and low-energy solar neutrinos. The scintillator will be loaded with natural...

  4. 85. Status of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
    Alexandru Hostiuc (University of Washington)
    5/12/22, 5:35 PM
    Double Beta Decay
    Oral

    A discovery of neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) would establish that neutrinos are their own antiparticles, prove total lepton number violation, and provide a mechanism for generating non-zero neutrino masses. The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR experiment searches for 0νββ in $^{76}$Ge with two shielded modules of high purity germanium (HPGe) detectors, ~30 kg of which are enriched to 88% in...
