The new g-2 experiment at Fermilab aims to measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment by a fourfold improvement in precision compared to the BNL experiment. Achieving this goal requires the delivery of highly polarized 3.094 GeV/c muons…
We present the results of measurements of the solar neutrino capture rate in gallium metal by the Russian-American Gallium Experiment SAGE during slightly more than half of a 22-year cycle of solar activity. Combined analysis of the data of…
A radiopure cadmium tungstate crystal scintillator, enriched in $^{106}$Cd to 66%, with mass of 216 g ($^{106}$CdWO$_4$), was used to search for double beta decay processes in $^{106}$Cd in coincidence with four ultra-low background high…
We demonstrate the direct loading of a D$_2$ MOT of potassium-39 atoms from a cryogenic buffer gas beam source. We load $10^8$ atoms in a 10 ms pulse, with no degradation in performance up to a 10 Hz repetition rate. Observed densities…
We report on the development of a fast neutron detector using a liquid scintillator doped with enriched Li-6. The lithium was introduced in the form of an aqueous LiCl micro-emulsion with a di-isopropylnaphthalene-based liquid scintillator.…
The SoLid collaboration is currently operating a 1.6 tons neutrino detector near the Belgian BR2 reactor, with main goal the observation of the oscillation of electron antineutrinos to previously undetected flavor states. The highly…
The latest results of the K2K experiment are reported. The results are based on data taken from June, 1999, to June, 2000, corresponding to a total $2.6 \cdot 10^{19}$ protons on target. Twenty seven fully-contained events in the 22.5 kton…

Upward-going muons observed by the Super-Kamiokande detector are produced by high-energy atmospheric neutrinos which interact in rock around the detector. Those which pass completely through the detector have a mean parent neutrino energy…
Used for both proton decay searches and neutrino physics, large water Cherenkov (WC) detectors have been very successful tools in particle physics. They are notable for their large masses and charged particle detection capabilities. While…
A set of quantitative predictions for the day-night asymmetry in the Super - Kamiokande detector is presented. For these predictions, neutrino events are collected in ``samples'' defined by the trajectories in the Earth of the corresponding…
At densities between 10^8 and 10^10} g/cm^3 electron capture in a presupernova collapse is believed to mainly occur on odd-odd nuclei. We have derived the rates for six of the most important electron capturing nuclei, {54,56,58}Mn and…
