Non-Accelerator Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics
| Leaders: | V.B. Brudanin A. Kovalik E.A. Yakushev |
Participating Countries and International Organizations:
Armenia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Ukraine, USA, United Kingdom, Uzbekistan.
Scientific Programme:
Search for and investigation of double-neutrino and neutrinoless modes of double beta-decay, clarification of the neutrino nature Majorana or Dirac, absolute neutrino mass scale and hierarchies. Search for the neutrino magnetic moment and dark matter. Investigation of galactic and extragalactic neutrino sources, diffusive neutrino cosmic background, search for exotic particles (monopoles). Application of the neutrino detector for a distant investigation of process inside of the reactor core of Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant. Search for sterile neutrinos. Spectroscopy of nuclei far from stability. Development of new methods for charged and neutral particle detection.
Expected main results in 2017:
- Data taking in the 2
0
-decay measurements of 106Cd, 82Se, 150Nd, 76Ge with the SuperNEMO and GERDA spectrometers.
- Processing of experimental data and determination of T1/2(22) for 48Ca, 96Zr, 130Te, 116Cd, 150Nd, 82Se and 76Ge.
- Data taking with the GEMMA-II spectrometer at the Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant; getting an upper
limit for the neutrino magnetic moment at the level of ~ 2· 10 -11 µ B.
- Data taking with forty FID800 detectors (cumulative fiducial mass 24 kg) in the upgraded EDELWEISS setup. Data taking with two special
low energy threshold (from ~ 0.5 keV) detectors in order to investigate the low mass WIMP region. The aim is to reach a WIMP-nucleon
scattering cross-section sensitivity of 5 · 10 -45 cm 2.
- Research and development of the semiconductor-based detecting systems for the GERDA and MAJORANA experiments.
Beginning of data taking in the experiment on the search
for the 76Ge 2 0-decay.
- Deployment and extention of the first cluster "Dubna" at Baikal-GVD array. Data taking and extraction of physical results with
the detector.
- Investigation of KLL and KMM Auger electrons in 65Zn, 67Cu, 67Ga and 152,154,155Eu decays.
- Design and creation of the low-threshold (~ 200 eV) HPGe detector. Production of low-background plastic
scintillators for the SuperNEMO experiment.
- Design and creation of the reactor antineutrino detector DANSS. Start of data taking.
