Alpha Backgrounds for HPGe Detectors in Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Experiments
R. A. Johnson, T. H. Burritt, S. R. Elliott +3
The Majorana Experiment will use arrays of enriched HPGe detectors to search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of 76Ge. Such a decay, if found, would show lepton-number violat…
The Majorana experiment: an ultra-low background search for neutrinoless double-beta decay
D. G. Phillips, E. Aguayo, F. T. Avignone +86
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay would resolve the Majorana nature of the neutrino and could provide information on the absolute scale of the neutrino mass. The in…
The 2010 Interim Report of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment Collaboration Physics Working Groups
The LBNE Collaboration, T. Akiri, D. Allspach +329
In early 2010, the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) science collaboration initiated a study to investigate the physics potential of the experiment with a broad set of diffe…
Double Beta Decay
Steven R. Elliott
At least one neutrino has a mass of about 50 meV or larger. However, the absolute mass scale for the neutrino remains unknown. Furthermore, the critical question: Is the neutrino i…
The Majorana Demonstrator
E. Aguayo, J. E. Fast, E. W. Hoppe +90
A brief review of the history and neutrino physics of double beta decay is given. A description of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR research and development program including background r…
Depth Requirements for a Tonne-scale 76Ge Neutrinoless Double-beta Decay Experiment
The MAJORANA Collaboration, E. Aguayo, F. T. Avignone +90
Neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments can potentially determine the Majorana or Dirac nature of the neutrino, and aid in understanding the neutrino absolute mass scale and hie…
