Brian Fujikawa (LBNL) "New Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Results from KamLAND-Zen"
September 8, 2016 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Abstract:
KamLAND is a one-kiloton liquid scintillator-based neutrino detector and is one of the recipients of the 2016 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics for its 2002 investigation of neutrino oscillations. KamLAND-Zen is the current phase of KamLAND, and it is an experiment to search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Xe-136. In this talk, I will describe the KamLAND experiment and present the new results from KamLAND-Zen. I will conclude by describing the plans and future objectives of KamLAND and KamLAND-Zen.
