SUMMARY:INPA Seminar Speaker: Larisa Throne (JGU Mainz)-Title: The Role of Atomic Tritium in Future Neutrino Mass Experiments
DESCRIPTION:Date: February 21\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 am – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Larisa Throne (JGU Mainz) \nTitle: The Role of Atomic Tritium in Future Neutrino Mass Experiments \nAbstract: Nearly 70 years since the neutrino was discovered and 25 years since the discovery of neutrino oscillations established its non-zero mass\, the absolute neutrino-mass scale remains unknown. Tritium beta decay endpoint measurements currently offer the best upper limit on the neutrino mass. A next-generation experiment with greater sensitivity must overcome one of the major systematics for this kind of measurement: the molecular nature of the beta decay source. Current and past tritium beta decay experiments use a molecular tritium source in which one of the tritium atoms undergoes decay. A fraction of the decay energy excites the molecule into rotational\, vibrational\, or electronic excited states; this causes broadening in the molecule’s final state distribution (FSD)\, and has a smearing effect on the beta decay spectrum. In order to achieve a reduced systematic uncertainty due to this FSD smearing\, next-generation experiments must switch to an atomic tritium source.\nI will present an overview of the necessary steps to develop an atomic tritium source through the lens of the Project 8 experiment. This multi-institution development program includes dissociation of molecular tritium\, cooling the resulting tritium atoms via a two-step process down to 10mK\, and trapping them magnetically. In addition to this overview\, I will focus on the multitude of tritium-compatible diagnostic tools being developed at JGU Mainz to measure atom flux\, atom beam shape\, and temperature. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA Seminar Speaker: Krystal Alfonso (Virginia Tech)-Title: With or without ν? Probing double beta decay with CUORE
DESCRIPTION:Date: February 28\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 am – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Krystal Alfonso (Virginia Tech)  \nTitle: With or without ν? Probing double beta decay with CUORE \nAbstract: The massive neutrino is our rabbit in a waistcoat. Prompted by the discovery of neutrino oscillations\, our community has taken a keen interest in answering how neutrinos with mass affect our understanding of the Universe. One approach to probing the elusive neutrino is to search for neutrinoless double beta decay—a lepton number violating process that would confirm the Majorana nature of the neutrino and possibly constrain the absolute neutrino-mass scale. In this presentation\, I will focus on the search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 130Te with CUORE\, a tonne-scale cryogenic calorimeter operated at milli-kelvin temperatures. Recently\, the experiment has demonstrated over 5 years stable operation. I will describe this achievement in the context of the CUORE analysis framework and the latest results using over 2 tonne.yr TeO2 exposure. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA SEMINAR SPEAKER:  Eve Vavagiakis ( Duke University)- Title: From ACT to Simons Observatory and CCAT: Upcoming observations of the millimeter and submillimeter sky
DESCRIPTION:Date: March 28\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker:  Eve Vavagiakis (Duke University) \nTitle: From ACT to Simons Observatory and CCAT: Upcoming observations of the millimeter and submillimeter sky \nAbstract:  Rapid developments in instrumentation and highly sensitive superconducting detectors have provided a wealth of arcminute-scale cosmic microwave background (CMB) data. These measurements are transforming our understanding of the evolution of our cosmos. I will contextualize recent results from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) and discuss how our high-resolution CMB maps are at the frontier of Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect science. I will also summarize the design and status of the first light instruments and low-temperature detectors for the CCAT Observatory and discuss early science goals with the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope. Upcoming measurements of the millimeter and submillimeter sky with CCAT and the Simons Observatory will offer rich opportunities for cross-correlation studies and pave the way toward CMB-S4. This will enable novel multifrequency science in the coming years\, testing cosmological models and opening new windows on galaxy evolution and fundamental physics. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011\n\nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA Seminar Speaker: Vladyslav Berest (Remote)-Universite Paris-Saclay- Title: Towards the meV level of neutrino mass scale: from CUPID to BINGO
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 11\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Vladyslav Berest (Universite Paris-Saclay) \nTitle: Towards the meV level of neutrino mass scale: from CUPID to BINGO \nAbstract: Neutrinoless double-beta decay (0v2b) is a key process in the search for Majorana neutrinos. Its observation would confirm the violation of lepton number conservation\, demonstrating that neutrinos are their own antiparticles\, and provide crucial insight into the absolute neutrino mass scale and hierarchy. The CUPID (CUORE Upgrade with Particle ID) experiment aims to achieve the sensitivity required to probe the inverted hierarchy region of the effective Majorana mass. It will employ an array of scintillating bolometers composed of Li2MoO4 (LMO) crystals enriched in Mo-100\, coupled with Ge bolometric light detectors. This dual heat-light readout enables an efficient rejection of the alpha background\, which currently limits the sensitivity of its predecessor\, CUORE. CUPID aims to reach an unprecedented background index of 1e-4 counts/kg/keV/year (ckky) in the region of interest (ROI) and to establish the technology required for a future ton-scale bolometric 0v2b experiment. Beyond CUPID\, further sensitivity improvements are necessary to probe the normal hierarchy region. The BINGO (Bi-Isotope 0v2b Next Generation Observatory) project introduces novel strategies to reduce background levels to 1e-5 ckky for the simultaneous study of Mo-100 and Te-130 isotopes. It proposes three main technological improvements that should help to drastically reduce background in ROI\, including innovative detector assembly\, cryogenic active veto\, and Neganov-Trofimov-Luke light detectors. This talk will provide a general review of the current status of 0v2b decay bolometric experiments\, along with the most recent results of R&D work conducted within the BINGO project framework. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA Seminar Speaker: Adam Baldoni (Penn State)-Title: A Novel Target Material for Optical Neutrino Detectors
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 18\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Adam Baldoni (Penn State) \nTitle: A Novel Target Material for Optical Neutrino Detectors \nAbstract: Since the late 1960s\, optical detectors have been a common method for detecting neutrino interactions. Two common target materials for these detectors are pure water and liquid scintillator\, each having advantages and disadvantages. A new material\, water-based liquid scintillator (WbLS)\, has been developed over the last decade at Brookhaven National Laboratory and combines the advantages of its constituents while minimizing their disadvantages. Small-scale\, tabletop experiments have been done with WbLS\, but ton-scale tests need to be performed before scaling up to a kiloton-scale WbLS detector. This talk will give an overview of three ton-scale WbLS detectors currently in operation\, detailing their design and the physics underlying how these detectors work. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA SEMINAR - Speaker: Dr. Paschal Coyle (CNRS\, Centre de Physique des Particules de Marseille\, France)-Title: Physics in the abyss with KM3NeT: from neutrino oscillations to cosmic neutrinos
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 25\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Auditorium 50-4 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Dr. Paschal Coyle  (CNRS\, Centre de Physique des Particules de Marseille\, France) \nTitle: Physics in the abyss with KM3NeT: from neutrino oscillations to cosmic neutrinos \nAbstract: The Kilometre cube neutrino telescope (KM3NeT) is a deep-sea neutrino telescope currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. Its main goals are the search for astrophysical sources of high-energy cosmic neutrinos and the study of neutrino oscillation phenomena with atmospheric neutrinos. It is also a unique cabled marine observatory for sea science studies. \nKM3NeT comprises giant 3D arrays of multi-PMT optical modules optimized to detect the Cherenkov light emitted by charged particles resulting from neutrino interactions in the vicinity of the detectors. With its two sites: ARCA a ‘sparse’ km3-scale detector offshore from Sicily and ORCA a ‘dense’ 7 MTon detector offshore from the south of France\, KM3NeT is sensitive to neutrino energies ranging from Mev to PeV. \nIn this talk\, the KM3NeT status and prospects are reported. The latest results including; atmospheric neutrino oscillations\, tau appearance\, neutrino mass ordering\, searches for beyond standard model effects and the recent detection of an exceptional ultra-high energy cosmic neutrino are presented. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA SEMINAR SPEAKER: Mackenzie Duce (Georgia Tech)-Title: Developments in Polysiloxane-based Scintillators for Radiation Detection
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 16\, 2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132  [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Mackenzie Duce (Georgia Tech) \nTitle: Developments in Polysiloxane-based Scintillators for Radiation Detection \nAbstract: Organic scintillators are a common choice in radiation detection due to their fast response time\, enabling discrimination of incident ionizing radiation via the pulse shapes. Commercially available organic scintillators are typically formulated from polyvinyl-toluene matrices. Still\, there is extensive research in alternative bases for these scintillators to improve radiation hardness\, ruggedness\, and chemical stability without sacrificing radiation detection characteristics. Polysiloxane-based scintillators are formulated from silicone resins\, making them rugged and radiation-hard. They have recently shown radiation detection capabilities on par with commercial options while requiring less doping of fluorescent molecules. Now\, polysiloxane scintillators doped with Boron-10 enriched molecules have been developed for thermal neutron detection. These scintillators demonstrate a light output of ~6\,000 photons/MeVee and a pulse shape discrimination figure of merit surpassing 1.27. As the pulse shapes from fast neutrons (MeV) overlap with those from thermal neutrons (< 0.025 eV)\, an algorithm has been developed to discern between thermal neutrons and fast neutrons in a mixed-field environment. A survey of 13 B10-doped polysiloxane scintillators formulations\, the algorithm development and deployment\, and the characterization of a scintillators array for nuclear nonproliferation applications is presented. \n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:INPA Seminar Speaker-Bear Carlson (University of Florida)- Title: Machine-Learning-Based Data Reconstruction Chain for the Short Baseline Near Detector
DESCRIPTION:Date: June 13\,  2025 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132  [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Bear Carlson (University of Florida) \nTitle: Machine-Learning-Based Data Reconstruction Chain for the Short Baseline Near Detector \nAbstract: The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) is a 100-ton scale Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) neutrino detector positioned in the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) at Fermilab\, as part of the Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program. Recent inroads in Computer Vision (CV) and Machine Learning (ML) have motivated a new approach to the analysis of particle imaging detector data. SBND data can therefore be reconstructed using an end-to-end\, ML-based data reconstruction chain for LArTPCs. The reconstruction chain is a multi-task network cascade that combines point-level feature extraction using Sparse Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and particle superstructure formation using Graph Neural Networks (GNN). I will first introduce the SBN program and its physics goals. I then demonstrate the expected reconstruction performance on SBND and its role in physics measurements. \n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:Joint INPA/IIC Talk with Dr. Patrick Peplowski (Johns Hopkins University)-Talk title: Nuclear Physics in Space: Uncovering the Solar System's History with Gamma Rays and Neutrons
DESCRIPTION:Seminar series: Interdisciplinary Instrumentation Colloquium\nTalk title: Nuclear Physics in Space: Uncovering the Solar System’s History with Gamma Rays and Neutrons\nDate: Friday\, July 11th @ 12 pm (bring your lunch)\nLocation: B50-Sessler (50A-5-5132)\nNote: Tea and cookies provided!\nSpeaker: Dr Patrick Peplowski (Johns Hopkins University) \nAbstract:\nBy detecting faint nuclear signals from the surfaces of planets\, moons\, and asteroids\, scientists are uncovering the hidden stories of how these worlds formed and evolved. This technique\, known as nuclear spectroscopy\, has revealed the iron-rich crust of Mercury\, the volatile content of Mars\, and the building blocks of our Moon and various asteroids. \nIn this talk\, I will explore how interplanetary spacecraft have used nuclear physics to probe the surfaces of our solar system’s rocky bodies—and what these findings tell us about the origin and evolution of our planetary neighborhood. We’ll journey from Mercury to Mars\, stopping at the Moon and asteroids along the way\, and see how fundamental nuclear interactions power one of the most exciting tools in planetary science \nSpeaker bio:\nPatrick Peplowski is a staff scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory\, where he works to develop\, build\, test\, and operate nuclear spectrometers that have flown on missions built by NASA and the Japanese Aerospace Agency (JAXA). He has been a science team member on eight different planetary science missions\, including missions to Mercury\, the moons of Earth\, Mars\, and Saturn\, and a variety of asteroids. His background is in nuclear physics\, having received his BS (2004) in Physics from the University of Washington\, and his MS (2005) and PhD (2009) from Florida State University. Patrick’s current research interests focus on measurements of spallation and neutron inelastic reaction cross sections\, and he is currently the instrument scientist for the gamma-ray and neutron instruments for NASA’s Psyche mission (launched in 2023) and JAXA’s Mars Moon Exploration (MMX) mission\, which will launch in 2026. \n \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nMeeting ID: 973 1481 3383\nPasscode: 631580\n
