Super-Kamiokande has reported a small excess of electron antineutrino events in the 20 MeV energy range, in the search for the diffuse supernova neutrino background. We interpret this signal as a possible indication of dark matter that…
Proton and neutron decays into light new particles $X$ can drastically change the experimental signatures and benefit from the complementarity of large water-Cherenkov neutrino detectors such as Super/Hyper-Kamiokande and tracking detectors…
Water Cherenov detector is a vital part in most of neutrino or cosmic ray research. As detectors grow in size, the water attenuation length (WAL) becomes increasingly essential for detector performance. It is essential to measure or monitor…
