Middle‐Atmosphere Dynamics Observed With a Portable Muon Detector

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 6, Issue 10, Page 1865-1876, October 2019., 2019
Abstract In the past years, large particle physics experiments have shown that muon rate variations detected in underground laboratories are sensitive to regional, middle‐atmosphere temperature variations. Potential applications include tracking short‐term atmosphere dynamics, such as Sudden Stratospheric Warmings.

Refining constraints from Borexino measurements on a light Z′-boson coupled to Lμ-Lτ current

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2021
The recent confirmation by FNAL of the (g−2)μ muon anomaly gives strong evidence for the possible existence of new physics beyond the Standard Model in the muon sector.

Supernova neutrino detection in Borexino [PDF]

open access: yesAstroparticle Physics, 2002
We calculated the expected neutrino signal in Borexino from a typical Type II supernova at a distance of 10 kpc. A burst of around 110 events would appear in Borexino within a time interval of about 10 s. Most of these events would come from the reaction channel $\bar _e+p\to e^++n$, while about 30 events would be induced by the interaction of the ...

Novel Neutrino‐Floor and Dark Matter Searches with Deformed Shell Model Calculations

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Event detection rates for WIMP‐nucleus interactions are calculated for 71Ga, 73Ge, 75As, and 127I (direct dark matter detectors). The nuclear structure form factors, which are rather independent of the underlying beyond the Standard Model particle physics scenario assumed, are evaluated within the context of the deformed nuclear shell model (DSM) based

Current Status and Future Prospects of the SNO+ Experiment

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
SNO+ is a large liquid scintillator‐based experiment located 2 km underground at SNOLAB, Sudbury, Canada. It reuses the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory detector, consisting of a 12 m diameter acrylic vessel which will be filled with about 780 tonnes of ultra‐pure liquid scintillator. Designed as a multipurpose neutrino experiment, the primary goal of SNO+

Theoretical and Phenomenological Status of Neutrino Physics: A Brief Review

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We present an overview of recent progress in the theoretical and phenomenological studies of neutrino masses, lepton avor mixing, and CP violation. Firstly, We discuss the status of neutrino mass with in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Then the possible ways in which neutrino mass terms can be included in the SM are discussed.

The DarkSide Multiton Detector for the Direct Dark Matter Search

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Although the existence of dark matter is supported by many evidences, based on astrophysical measurements, its nature is still completely unknown. One major candidate is represented by weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), which could in principle be detected through their collisions with ordinary nuclei in a sensitive target, producing ...

Solar Neutrinos Spectroscopy with Borexino Phase-II

open access: yesUniverse, 2018
Solar neutrinos have played a central role in the discovery of the neutrino oscillation mechanism. They still are proving to be a unique tool to help investigate the fusion reactions that power stars and further probe basic neutrino properties.

Test of non-standard neutrino properties with the BOREXINO source experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We calculate the event rates induced by high-intensity radioactive sources of nu_e (51Cr) and of anti-nu_e (90Sr), to be located near the BOREXINO detector.
