`Passion for Earth': A New Beginning
Francesco Vissani
In this essay, I discuss an interdisciplinary science that is just blossoming: that of geo-neutrinos. I begin with a couple of episodes from the history of thought, showing the dee…
The ASIMOV Prize for scientific publishing -- HEP researchers trigger young people toward science
Andrea Ventura, Wanda Maria Alberico, Roberta Antolini +28
This work presents the ASIMOV Prize for scientific publishing, which was launched in Italy in 2016. The prize aims to bring the young generations closer to scientific culture, thro…
An accurate evaluation of electron (anti-)neutrino scattering on nucleons
Giulia Ricciardi, Natascia Vignaroli, Francesco Vissani
We discuss as accurately as possible the cross section of quasi-elastic scattering of electron (anti-)neutrinos on nucleons, also known as inverse beta decay in the case of antineu…
Toward the discovery of matter creation with neutrinoless double-beta decay
Matteo Agostini, Giovanni Benato, Jason A. Detwiler +2
The discovery of neutrinoless double-beta decay could soon be within reach. This hypothetical ultra-rare nuclear decay offers a privileged portal to physics beyond the Standard Mod…
Complementarity between neutrinoless double beta decay and collider searches for heavy neutrinos in composite-fermion models
S. Biondini, S. Dell'Oro, R. Leonardi +4
Composite-fermion models predict excited quarks and leptons with mass scales which can potentially be observed at high-energy colliders like the LHC; the most recent exclusion limi…
Testing the Inverted Neutrino Mass Ordering with Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay
Matteo Agostini, Giovanni Benato, Jason A. Detwiler +2
We quantify the extent to which future experiments will test the existence of neutrinoless double-beta decay mediated by light neutrinos with inverted-ordered masses. While it rema…
