Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) will make measurements of neutrino oscillation probabilities as a function of neutrino energy at unprecedented levels of precision. In order to do this, DUNE must figure out how to instrument office-building-sized volumes of Liquid Argon using the Time Projection Chamber technique, and at the same time make reliable predictions for how a...

4303. The Status of Hyper-Kamiokande

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

Hyper-Kamiokande, the successor to Super-Kamiokande, is a third-generation ring imaging water Cherenkov detector in development in Japan. Serving as the far detector to the JPARC neutrino beam with a 295-kilometer baseline, it promises heightened sensitivity for precise oscillation parameter measurements. This presentation outlines Hyper-Kamiokande's current status, construction stages, and...

4307. Status of the T2K Experiment and OTR Detector in the T2K beam line

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

The Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) experiment is a long-baseline neutrino experiment. A proton beam generated in Tokai, on the east coast of Japan, collides with a fixed
graphite target which produces mesons which decay to neutrinos. A near detector suite located 280 meters from the target and a far detector, Super-Kamiokande, located 295 kilometers from the target on Japan's west coast, are...

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

The LEGEND collaboration is operating the LEGEND-200 experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) in Italy and is designing the LEGEND-1000 experiment for baseline deployment at LNGS with SNOLAB as a backup site. The experiment use high-purity enriched Ge-76 crystals in a direct search for neutrinoless double beta decay. The goal for LEGEND-200 is to be sensitive to a double beta...

4102. Predominantly Electric Storage Ring with Nuclear Spin Control Capability

Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

A predominantly electric E&m storage ring, with weak superimposed magnetic bending, is shown to be capable of storing two different particle type bunches, such as helion (h) and deuteron (d), or h and electron ($e^-$), co-traveling with different velocities on the same central orbit. Rear-end collisions occurring periodically in a full acceptance particle detector/polarimeter, allow the...
