The cosmological Dark Matter particle remains as elusive as ever. Experiments looking for signals from direct interactions of galactic Dark Matter particles in detector targets have so far ruled out only a small number of theoretical possibilities within the vast parameter space Dark Matter could be found in. To probe unexplored regions in parameter space for signs of these particles, we...
Noble gases, like Xr or Ar in their liquid or gaseous phase, are becoming increasingly common in experimental programs searching for physics beyond the standard model. This includes the searches for the neutrino-less double beta decay. Noble gases may be used either as targets or can also serve as passive and/or active shields. In the first case one can use as an example the Xe-based detectors...
The understanding of neutrino physics has made impressive advances in the last two decades thanks to the development of detectors for studying the phenomenon of oscillation. Next generation of experiments will perform precision measurements of the oscillation parameters, measure the mass hierarchy, the CP violation phase, and assess the possible existence of a fourth neutrino flavor. Noble...
