Richard Bonventre (LBNL) "Investigating Lepton Flavor and Number Violation with the Mu2e and SNO+ Experiments"

HYBRID 50A-5132 (Sessler Conference Room), https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585 50A-5132

Abstract: Neutrino oscillation measurements have shown that lepton flavor is not conserved, and that the standard model must be extended to include neutrino mass. Neutrino-less double beta decay measurements will help understand the nature and origin of neutrino mass, while …

Dean Robinson (UCSC/LBNL) " Model-Independent Pathways to New Physics"

HYBRID 50A-5132 (Sessler Conference Room), https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585 50A-5132

ABSTRACT: New methods and novel strategies are needed in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Motivated by signals of lepton flavor universality violation in semileptonic B decays, I'll discuss state-of-the-art theoretical developments and new model-independent theoretical tools …

Simon Knapen (IAS) "The Soft Frontier in Dark Matter Direct Detection"

HYBRID 50A-5132 (Sessler Conference Room), https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585 50A-5132

ABSTRACT: Searches for high energy signatures from beyond the standard model physics have advanced greatly, but a lot of ground remains to be covered for soft, low energy signals. In the context of dark matter direct detection, future single-phonon detectors …
