Deep underground laboratories are the only places where the extremely low background radiation level required for most experiments looking for rare events in physics and astroparticle physics can be achieved. Underground sites are also the…
A study of the current status of WIMP dark matter searches has been made in the context of scientific and technical planning for a Deep Underground Science and Engineering Laboratory (DUSEL) in the U.S. The table of contents follows: 1.…
Neutrino physics has seen an explosion of activity and new results in the last decade. In this report the current state of the field is summarized, with a particular focus on progress in the last two years. Prospects for the near term…
This topical report of the 2021 US Community Study on the Future of Particle Physics (Snowmass 2021) summarizes the underground facilities needs for upcoming and next generation neutrino experiments. The underground facilities needs are…
I summarize the status of the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota and present connections to Energy and Intensity Frontier that benefit from the establishment of SURF and the staging of US-funded experiments in a domestic…
We summarise some aspects of experiments currently being built or planned, and indulge in wild speculation about possibilities on the more distant horizon.
A neutrino factory storage ring can provide beams to various locations. We discuss the ICANOE detector (at LNGS) at one such site. We then describe the prospects for the use of the underground location at Carlsbad, NM for a neutrino factory…
Deep Learning is one of the newest trends in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence research. It is also one of the most popular scientific research trends now-a-days. Deep learning methods have brought revolutionary advances in…
For millennia, mankind has been fascinated by the marvel of the starry night sky. Yet, a proper scientific understanding of how stars form, shine, and die is a relatively recent achievement, made possible by the interplay of different…
The most important underground detectors addressing Cosmic Ray physics are described, with a special emphasis on the description of the used technology.
The U.S. astronomy decadal surveys have been models for advice to government on how to apportion resources to optimise the scientific return on national investments in facilities and manpower. The U.S. is now gearing up to conduct its 2020…
Over the past few years, we have seen fundamental breakthroughs in core problems in machine learning, largely driven by advances in deep neural networks. At the same time, the amount of data collected in a wide array of scientific domains…
We review recent important progresses at the B factories and discuss the future prospects. We also comment on how we might proceed to search for new physics.
In this paper I will discuss how an intense beam of high energy neutrinos produced with conventional technology could be used to further our understanding of neutrino masses and mixings. I will describe the possibility of building such a…
