Expected Performance of CryoArray [PDF]
WIMP-nucleon cross sections below 10^(-9) pb may be probed by ton-scale experiments with low thresholds and background rates ~20 events per year. An array of cryogenic detectors ("CryoArray") could perform well enough to reach this goal.

CDMS, Supersymmetry and Extra Dimensions [PDF]
The CDMS experiment aims to directly detect massive, cold dark matter particles originating from the Milky Way halo. Charge and lattice excitations are detected after a particle scatters in a Ge or Si crystal kept at ~30 mK, allowing to separate nuclear ...

Recent atmospheric neutrino results from Soudan 2 [PDF]
An updated measurement of the atmospheric nu_mu/nu_e ratio-of-ratios, 0.68+-0.11+-0.06, has been obtained using a 4.6-kty exposure of the Soudan-2 iron tracking calorimeter.

Gator: a low-background counting facility at the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory [PDF]
A low-background germanium spectrometer has been installed and is being operated in an ultra-low background shield (the Gator facility) at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory in Italy (LNGS).

A Neutrino-Factory Muon Storage Ring to Provide Beams for Multiple Detectors Around the World [PDF]
We briefly discuss the physics motivation for a neutrino factory with varying baseline distances of about 1000 to 9000 km. We describe the amount of non planarity of the storage ring required to service three or four detectors at once.

Results from the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS) experiment at Soudan [PDF]
We report the result of a blinded search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) using the majority of the SuperCDMS Soudan dataset. With an exposure of 1690 kg days, a single candidate event is observed, consistent with expected backgrounds ...

Results from a Search for Light-Mass Dark Matter with a P-type Point Contact Germanium Detector [PDF]
We report on several features present in the energy spectrum from an ultra low-noise germanium detector operated at 2,100 m.w.e. By implementing a new technique able to reject surface events, a number of cosmogenic peaks can be observed for the first ...

Megaton Water Cerenkov Detectors and Astrophysical Neutrinos
Although formal proposals have not yet been made, the UNO and Hyper-Kamiokande projects are being developed to follow-up the tremendously successful program at Super-Kamiokande using a detector that is 20-50 times larger. The potential of such a detector
