We review the findings for the values of the cosmological parameters as derived from high-redshift SNIa measurements. The most recent results confirm the picture of a non-empty inflationary Universe that is consistent with a cosmological…
Announcement of detection of Solar 8B neutrinos by XENONnT dual-phase detector come with a suite of unexplained detector effects. We expect accumulation of surface charges and charged surface instability resulting in maximal surface…
Bombardment of materials by high-energy particles (e.g., electrons, nuclei, X- and $\gamma$-ray photons) often leads to light emission, known generally as scintillation. Scintillation is ubiquitous and enjoys widespread applications in many…
As part of the Advanced LIGO+ (A+) project we have developed, produced, and characterised sensors and electronics to interrogate new optical suspensions. The central element is a displacement sensor with an integrated electromagnetic…
Present cosmological observations yield an upper bound on the neutrino mass which is significantly stronger than laboratory bounds. However, the exact value of the cosmological bound is model dependent and therefore less robust. Here, I…
This paper reports results from a search for single and multi-nucleon disappearance from the $^{16}$O nucleus in water within the \snoplus{} detector using all of the available data. These so-called "invisible" decays do not directly…
