Calculated event rates for Axion Detection via Atomic and Nuclear Processes
John D. Vergados, Paraskevi C. Divari, Hiroyasu Ejiri
The possibility of detection of 5.5 MeV and 14.4 keV solar axions by observing axion-induced nuclear and atomic transitions is investigated. The presence of nuclear transitions bet…
Theoretical direct WIMP detection rates for transitions to excited states
J. D. Vergados, H. Ejiri, K. G. Savvidy
The recent WMAP and Planck data have confirmed that exotic dark matter together with the vacuum energy (cosmological constant) dominate in the flat Universe. Many extensions of the…
Theory of neutrinoless double beta decay
J. D. Vergados, H. Ejiri, F. Simkovic
Neutrinoless double beta decay, which is a very old and yet elusive process, is reviewed. Its observation will signal that lepton number is not conserved and the neutrinos are Majo…
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.
Can Solar Neutrinos be a Serious Background in Direct Dark Matter Searches?
J. D. Vergados, H. Ejiri
The coherent contribution of all neutrons in neutrino nucleus scattering due to the neutral current is examined considering the boron solar neutrinos. These neutrinos could potenti…
Neutrinoless double beta decay and direct searches for neutrino mass
Craig Aalseth, Henning Back, Loretta Dauwe +24
Study of the neutrinoless double beta decay and searches for the manifestation of the neutrino mass in ordinary beta decay are the main sources of information about the absolute ne…
