Pions are fantastic tools to look for new physics! The PIENU experiment at TRIUMF has provided, to date, the most precise experimental determination of
In the pursuit of unraveling one of the fundamental questions in physics—why the Universe is matter-dominated—one possible approach is to scrutinize the nature of neutrinos through the investigation of neutrinoless double beta (
The nEXO experiment is being designed to search for neutrino-less double beta decay (
Barium-tagging is a technique being developed as a potential upgrade for an experiment called nEXO. The technique aims to identify single ions of the isotope Ba-136 to confirm the decay of its parent nucleus Xe-136. Due to the event localisation capability of the nEXO detector, with Ba-tagging, the detector volume can be probed for Ba-136. Identification of Ba-136 would serve as unambiguous...
Low background noble liquid-based experiments are among the leading world efforts in neutrino science and dark matter search. They rely on the development of large-scale photon counting technologies to detect noble liquid scintillation in the VUV range (argon at 128 nm or xenon at 175 nm) as a mean to quantify, position, and discriminate meaningful events.
The Université de Sherbrooke is...
