    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    The EXO collaboration continues to search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of 136Xe. Discovery of this process would lead to a new understanding of neutrino properties and provide a first measurement of the neutrino mass scale. The collaboration is currently operating a 200 kg liquid xenon time projection chamber, EXO-200, at WIPP in New Mexico. A detailed description of the...

  2. 392. Neutrinos at SNOLAB: SNO+ and HALO
    Clarence Virtue (Laurentian University)

    Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    SNOLAB is the facility of choice for the next generation of underground particle astrophysics experiments. The scientific programme of SNOLAB encompasses the search for neutrino-less double beta decay; low energy solar neutrino studies; the neutrino signal from the next galactic supernova; and the quest for the direct observation of dark matter. This talk leaves aside the several SNOLAB...

    Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)
    SNO+ is a kilotonne-scale liquid scintillator neutrino experiment that is currently being constructed at SNOLAB. One of the primary physics goals of SNO+ will be a search for neutrinoless double beta decay, which will be carried out by loading tellurium metal into the liquid scintillator. This talk will describe the techniques that have been developed to prepare tellurium for use in SNO+, most...

  4. 149. Measurement of the Pion Absorption and Charge Exchange Cross Sections for the T2K Experiment

    Particle Physics / Physique des particules (PPD)
    Oral (Student, In Competition) / Orale (Étudiant(e), inscrit à la compétition)
    In T2K, neutrinos are observed via charged current quasi-elastic scattering (CCQE) interactions (\nu_{\mu}+n->\nu^{-}+p), as well as charged current single pion production (CC1\pi) (\nu_{\mu}+p->\mu^{-}+p+\pi^{+}). The \pi^{+} is free to interact inside and outside the nucleus via absorption (ABS) and charge exchange (CX: \pi^{+}->\pi^{0}) processes. If there is an unobserved pion, then the...
