    The use of enriched liquid Xe-136 (LXe) offers significant advantages to search for double beta decay processes. A discovery of the neutrinoless mode (0vbb) would reveal new properties of neutrinos including first measurement of its mass scale, evidence that they are their own antiparticles, and a first observation of lepton number violation.

    The Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) employs a...

  2. 2293. nEXO: a tonne-scale next-generation double-beta decay experiment

    The nEXO Collaboration is developing a proposal for a 5-tonne experiment with initial neutrinoless double-beta decay sensitivity approaching to $10^{28}$ years. The nEXO detector will be a homogeneous liquid xenon (enriched to 90% in $^{136}$Xe) time projection chamber inspired by the highly successful EXO-200 detector. Energy resolution, event topology, and event localization in the large...

    The hydrogen atom has played a fundamental role in the development of our understanding of the universe and of quantum mechanics. This makes antihydrogen a natural candidate for testing symmetries between matter and antimatter. The goal of the ALPHA (Antihydrogen Laser PHysics Apparatus) collaboration is to synthesize, trap, and study antihydrogen atoms. ALPHA has made significant progress...
