Title: Cheap as CHIPS - Large Water Cherenkov Detectors: Faster and Cheaper Abstract: CHIPS is an R&D program focused on designing and fabricating a cost-effective large water Cherenkov detector (WCD) to study neutrino oscillations. Traditional WCD's with a low energy …
Title: The Latest Development of Optical/NIR Astronomy at Dome A, Antarctica Abstract: Dome A, the highest spot on Antarctic plateau is likely the best site for ground-based astronomy. I present in this talk an update on the recent progresses in …
Abstract: A summary of the search for direct stop production in the 0-lepton channel is presented using 20 TeV data collected with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. One of the stop decay modes considered is a stop decay to …
Abstract: The EDELWEISS collaboration is operating a large set of 36 massive cryogenic Ge detectors for the direct detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) in the underground laboratory of Modane, France (LSM). The twofold detector readout in ionization and …
Title: Challenges and Opportunities for a Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment Abstract: Neutrino mass and mixing is one of the few indications of new physics beyond the standard model, and new theoretical and experimental work is needed to understand neutrino properties …
Abstract: Since the discovery of Higgs, the future of HEP is a key question to the community. Needless to say, accelerator-based energy frontier of HEP is still playing the central role, and a right approach is vital for the health …
“The Baryon-Dark Matter Relative Velocity and a New Approach to the 3-Point Correlation Function” Due to their different behaviors before decoupling (z~1020), at high redshift (z~50) there is a relative velocity between baryons and dark matter that is coherent on …
Abstract: LUX has set the standard for direct dark matter detection experiments since its result announcement in 2013. In order to get there, several years of science planning and incremental successes had to happen. Today LUX serves a dual purpose: …
Abstract: The NOνA long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment has just completed its initial data run and the analysis of that data. This run constitutes about 8% of the planned data. The first run resulted in a measurement of the oscillation …
