The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) experiment located at the INFN Gran Sasso Laboratory (Italy), is looking for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge76, by using high-purity g…
Annama H chondrite - mineralogy, physical properties, cosmic ray exposure, and parent body history
Tomáš Kohout, Jakub Haloda, Patricie Halodová +27
The fall of the Annama meteorite occurred early morning (local time) on April 19, 2014 on the Kola Peninsula (Russia). Based on mineralogy and physical properties, Annama is a typi…
The Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (LEGEND)
LEGEND Collaboration, N. Abgrall, A. Abramov +230
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay (0) would show that lepton number is violated, reveal that neutrinos are Majorana particles, and provide information on neutr…
New limits on , and decay of Ce and Ce with deeply purified cerium sample
P. Belli, R. Bernabei, R. S. Boiko +9
A search for double electron capture (), electron capture with positron emission (), and double positron emission ) in Ce and Ce…
Limiting neutrino magnetic moments with Borexino Phase-II solar neutrino data
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +104
A search for the solar neutrino effective magnetic moment has been performed using data from 1291.5 days exposure during the second phase of the Borexino experiment. No significant…
Simultaneous Precision Spectroscopy of , Be, and Solar Neutrinos with Borexino Phase-II
M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller, S. Appel +104
We present the first simultaneous measurement of the interaction rates of , Be, and solar neutrinos performed with a global fit to the Borexino data in an extended en…
A search for low-energy neutrinos correlated with gravitational wave events GW150914, GW151226 and GW170104 with the Borexino detector
M. Agostini, K. Altenmuller, S. Appel +99
We present the results of a low-energy neutrino search using the Borexino detector in coincidence with the gravitational wave (GW) events GW150914, GW151226 and GW170104. We search…
Material radioassay and selection for the XENON1T dark matter experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +118
The XENON1T dark matter experiment aims to detect Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) through low-energy interactions with xenon atoms. To detect such a rare event necessi…
Test of the Pauli Exclusion Principle in the VIP-2 underground experiment
C. Curceanu, H. Shi, S. Bartalucci +22
