Institute for Nuclear and Particle Astrophysics (INPA) at LBNL
The INPA Seminar weekly talks are on Fridays, starting at 12:00 pm, unless informed otherwise. The seminar talk starts with a brief presentation of the weekly scientific news. Typically, the talks conclude by 1:00 pm. The seminars are held in the Sessler Conference Room, located in Bldg. 50A- 5132.
The committee members are:
The seminar schedule for the Institute for Nuclear and Particle Astrophysics (INPA) is tentative and becomes final a few days before the Friday talk.
Please send all suggestions for future INPA talks and speakers to the INPA Committee.

VIRTUAL INPA SEMINAR – Adrien Hourlier (MIT)
Speaker: Adrien Hourlier (MIT) Title: MiniBooNE Oscillation Results with Complete Dataset Abstract: The MiniBooNE experiment, located on the Booster Neutrino Beamline at Fermilab, reports a total excess of 638.0+/-132.8 electron-like events (4.8σ) from a data sample corresponding to 18.75×10^20 protons-on-target in neutrino mode, which is a 46% increase in the data sample with respect to […]

VIRTUAL INPA SEMINAR | Scott Kravitz (LBNL)
Speaker: Scott Kravitz (LBNL) Title: CrystaLiZe - Solid Xenon Detector R&D Abstract: Radon and its daughter decays limit the sensitivity of direct WIMP dark matter searches, despite extensive screening programs, careful material selection and specialized Rn-reduction systems. For xenon time projection chambers, a means to surpass this constraint may lie in crystallizing the xenon. In […]

VIRTUAL INPA SEMINAR | Sukanya Chakrabarti (RIT)
Speaker: Sukanya Chakrabarti (Rochester Institute Technology) Title: Measuring Accelerations— Near & Far Abstract: Recent technological advances and observational programs now make it possible for us to directly measure the Galactic acceleration experienced by stars within the Milky Way. I will discuss the traditional method of estimating Galactic accelerations and thereby the Oort limit (from which […]
