Description

The NEXT (Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC) collaboration employs electroluminescent xenon gas TPCs (Time Projection Chambers) to search for neutrinoless double beta decay in 136Xe. We report on recent developments, including results from the NEXT-100 detector installed in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (LSC). We also discuss current and future efforts within the context of the collaboration, including planned upgrades to the NEXT-100 detector and studies on xenon gas properties with the NEXT-DEMO++ detector.
