    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    The Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) effort continues to develop techniques and technology towards the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. Discovery of this process would reveal new properties of neutrinos including first measurement of the neutrino mass scale, evidence that neutrinos are Majorana particles, and first measurement of a lepton number violating process. Searching for...

    SNO+ is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment which is located at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Ontario. Using 780 tonnes of organic liquid scintillator, SNO+ will search for neutrino-less double beta decay of 130Te. In addition, measuring low energy solar neutrinos are planned for the second phase. Looking for rare events requires very stringent background limits. One of the sources originates from...

    Is the neutrino its own anti-particle? The SNO+ detector at SNOLAB is set to join the international competition of experiments seeking to answer this fundamental question. Its sheer size – a 12 m diameter acrylic sphere holding 780 t of liquid scintillator containing more than 2 t of dissolved tellurium and observed by nearly 9500 photomultiplier tubes – puts SNO+ among those experiments with...
