SUMMARY:SPEAKER: Arun Persaud (LBNL-ATAP) - TITLE: Applications of Associate Particle Imaging at Berkeley Lab from Carbon in Soil to Nuclear Data
DESCRIPTION:This is an In-Person [HYBRID] Event \nLOCATION: Sessler Conference Room – 50A – 5132 \nDATE: February 3\, 2023 \nTIME: 12:00 PM \nTITLE: Applications of Associate Particle Imaging at Berkeley Lab from Carbon in Soil to Nuclear Data \nABSTRACT: We developed an Associated Particle Imaging(API) system that uses inelastic neutron scattering reactions to measure 3d density maps for individual elements in a target area. We apply this method to measuring carbon in soil for agricultural applications\, e.g. quantifying carbon sequestration. We also have used API recently together with colleagues from NASA and APL to calibrate neutron detectors and for precise measurement of cross sections as well as planned bulk density measurements of meteorites. In this talk\, we will give an overview of API as a technique and these applications. \nZOOM INFORMATION – \nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585

SUMMARY:SPEAKER: Alexander Leder (UCB) – TITLE: Current status of the cavity and resonance based experiments
DESCRIPTION:This is an In-Person [HYBRID] Event \nLOCATION: Sessler Conference Room – 50A – 5132 \nDATE: February 10\, 2023 \nTIME: 12:00 PM \nTITLE: Current status of the cavity and resonance based experiments \nABSTRACT: Axions are a well-motivated dark matter candidate\, which currently have a wide open and accessible parameter space\, with few constraints on their mass and coupling strength to photons. On the higher end of the mass range (> 1 GHz)\, experiments such as HAYSTAC or ADMX seek to measure the coupling of axions to the photon inside a resonant cavity\, making use of better than standard quantum limit sensors and very high Q values. On the lower end (between 5 kHz – 5 MHz)\, resonant experiments such The DMRadio-50L experiment seeks to explore a wide portion of this axion parameter space\, taking advantage of lumped element high-Q resonators with optimal out-of-band sensitivity. In this talk\, I will present an overview of the current status of the cavity and resonance based experiments currently underway to fully explore the over 22 orders of magnitude currently available to us. \nZOOM INFORMATION – \nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585

SUMMARY:SPEAKER: R.G. Hamish Robertson (Univ of Washington)- TITLE: The direct road to neutrino mass
DESCRIPTION:This is an In-Person [HYBRID] Event \nLOCATION: Sessler Conference Room – 50A – 5132 \nDATE: February 17\, 2023 \nTIME: 12:00 PM \nTITLE: The direct road to neutrino mass \nABSTRACT: The discovery of neutrino oscillations gave us proof that neutrinos have mass\, a direct contradiction of the minimal standard model of particle physics. But how much mass? Oscillations cannot give a number for the mass\, other than that the average of the three masses must be at least 0.02 eV. The mass is needed to build the new standard model\, and to help pin down such things as the equation of state of dark energy and the evolution of structure in cosmology. KATRIN\, the first new laboratory experiment on the beta spectrum of tritium in more than 20 years\, has now shown the mass to be no greater than 0.8 eV. KATRIN continues toward its sensitivity goal of 0.2 eV. If the mass is not in this range\, a very different approach called “Project 8” has passed proof-of-concept tests with a scheme that might have even greater sensitivity. \nZOOM INFORMATION – \nJoin Zoom Meeting:https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEY\nmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011\nPasscode: 247722
