The GERDA experiment for the search of 0νββ decay in ^{76}Ge
GERDA Collaboration, K. -H. Ackermann, M. Agostini +136
The GERDA collaboration is performing a search for neutrinoless double beta decay of ^{76}Ge with the eponymous detector. The experiment has been installed and commissioned at the…
Measurement of the half-life of the two-neutrino double beta decay of Ge-76 with the Gerda experiment
GERDA Collaboration, M. Agostini, M. Allardt +110
The primary goal of the GERmanium Detector Array (Gerda) experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso of INFN is the search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge-76…
Lepton Mixing Patterns from a Scan of Finite Discrete Groups
Martin Holthausen, Kher Sham Lim, Manfred Lindner
The recent discovery of a non-zero value of the mixing angle theta_13 has ruled out tri-bimaximal mixing as the correct lepton mixing pattern generated by some discrete flavor symm…
CP and Discrete Flavour Symmetries
Martin Holthausen, Manfred Lindner, Michael A. Schmidt
We give a consistent definition of generalised CP transformations in the context of discrete flavour symmetries. Non-trivial consistency conditions imply that every generalised CP…
Lepton flavor at the electroweak scale: A complete A4 model
Martin Holthausen, Manfred Lindner, Michael A. Schmidt
Apparent regularities in fermion masses and mixings are often associated with physics at a high flavor scale, especially in the context of discrete flavor symmetries. One of the ma…
Direct Measurement of Backgrounds using Reactor-Off Data in Double Chooz
Y. Abe, C. Aberle, J. C. dos Anjos +170
Double Chooz is unique among modern reactor-based neutrino experiments studying disappearance in that data can be collected with all reactors off. In this paper, we pres…
First Test of Lorentz Violation with a Reactor-based Antineutrino Experiment
Double Chooz Collaboration, Y. Abe, C. Aberle +164
We present a search for Lorentz violation with 8249 candidate electron antineutrino events taken by the Double Chooz experiment in 227.9 live days of running. This analysis, featur…
Comment on "On the subtleties of searching for dark matter with liquid xenon detectors"
The XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, M. Alfonsi +74
In a recent manuscript (arXiv:1208.5046) Peter Sorensen claims that XENON100's upper limits on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon cross sections for WIMP masses below 10 GeV "may be und…
Naturalness of Neutralino Dark Matter
Philipp Grothaus, Manfred Lindner, Yasutaka Takanishi
We investigate the level of fine-tuning of neutralino Dark Matter below 200 GeV in the low-energy phenomenological minimal supersymmetric Standard Model taking into account the new…
Light Sterile Neutrinos: A White Paper
K. N. Abazajian, M. A. Acero, S. K. Agarwalla +184
This white paper addresses the hypothesis of light sterile neutrinos based on recent anomalies observed in neutrino experiments and the latest astrophysical data.
Leptogenesis in models with keV sterile neutrino dark matter
F. Bezrukov, A. Kartavtsev, M. Lindner
We analyze leptogenesis in gauge extensions of the Standard Model with keV sterile neutrino dark matter. We find that both the observed dark matter abundance and the correct baryon…
