Geoneutrinos are electron antineutrinos ($\bar\nu_e$) generated by the beta-decays of radionuclides naturally occurring inside the Earth, in particular $^{238}$U, $^{232}$Th, and $^{40}$K. Measurement of these neutrinos provides powerful…

The model-independent reconstruction of the energy spectra of $\overline{\nu}^{}_e$, $\nu^{}_e$ and $\nu^{}_x$ (i.e., $\nu^{}_\mu$, $\nu^{}_\tau$ and their antiparticles) from the future observation of a galactic core-collapse supernova…
Radioactive isotopes produced through cosmic muon spallation are a background for rare-event detection in $\nu$ detectors, double-$\beta$-decay experiments, and dark-matter searches. Understanding the nature of cosmogenic backgrounds is…
