New methods for low-energy neutrino detection
Alongside our participation in large collaborations, we dedicate part of our research to developing and testing new concepts for neutrino detection. These efforts cover reactor, relic, and sterile neutrinos and aim to investigate their masses and properties using alternative methods that take advantage of the technologies developed over the past three decades.
We are particularly interested in regimes where the energy scale of the experiment matches that of the physical process under study. Working in this range may allow us to observe neutrino effects more effectively, without relying on massive datasets or heavy statistical machinery. This approach — at the crossroads of particle, nuclear, atomic, and solid state physics — may open new paths to detect or characterize neutrinos in ways that complement large-scale experiments.
