Astroparticle Seminar: A.Chavarria-UChicago “A high-resolution CMOS imaging detector for the search of neutrinoless double beta decay in Se-82"
Wed, Nov 16, 2016, 2:00 pmWed, Nov 9, 2016, 3:00 pm
Abstract: The detection of neutrinoless double beta decay is the only known avenue to establish that neutrinos are Majorana fermions, as opposed to Dirac fermions. We propose to develop high-resolution solid-state imaging devices from amorphous selenium evaporated on a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) active pixel array for the…

“Searching for New Phenomena at the Intensity Frontier” Abstract In February of this year the intensity frontier SuperKEKB e+e- collider, located at the KEK laboratory in Tsukuba, came online with its “first turns”, a major milestone in preparing for collisions in 2017. The Belle II detector, located at the SuperKEKB interaction point, will be…
Astroparticle Seminar: "Neutrino Physics faces Cosmology"- Carlos Peña Garay
Fri, Jan 29, 2016, 2:00 pm3:00 pm
Neutrinos are among the fundamental particles which can be measured in the lab and have an impact on cosmological observables. CMB data verified there were three neutrinos produced in the early universe and large scale structure data can probe neutrino masses, also partially known by neutrino oscillation experiments. I will discuss the discovery…
Astroparticle Seminar:Canfranc Laboratory-speaker Aldo Ianni

The Canfranc Laboratory is the second largest Deep Underground Infrastructure for Astroparticle Physics in Europe. It is located in the Spanish Pyrenees at 1100 meters above sea level at the border between Spain and France. About 1600 square meters are available underground for experimental activities. This laboratory has about 850 meters of rock…
