We present the status of the LHCb experiment which will make precision measurements of CP violation in $B$ meson decays. The motivation for the experiment and an overview of the detector design are given. The vertex detector, ring imaging…
We propose the construction of LEGEND-1000, the ton-scale Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless $\beta \beta$ Decay. This international experiment is designed to answer one of the highest priority questions in fundamental…
This document is written as a contribution to the European Strategy of Particle Physics (ESPP) update. We offer a detailed overview of current developments and future directions for the CODEX-b detector, which aims to detect long-lived…
The experimental requirements in near future accelerators (e.g. High Luminosity-LHC) has stimulated intense interest in development of detectors with high precision timing capabilities. With this as a goal, a new detection concept called…
Electroweak triplet Higgs sector extensions are well-motivated scenarios to address lepton flavour observations. These models can also be strongly constrained by combining precise, indirect low-energy measurements with direct searches for…
The off-axis magnetic near detector of the T2K experiment has undergone a significant upgrade, including the construction and installation of two new Time Projection Chambers featuring innovative resistive Micromegas technology and a field…
Transitions of charged leptons from one generation to another are basically prohibited in the Standard Model because of the mysteriously tiny neutrino masses, although such flavor-violating transitions have been long observed for quarks and…
The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC (NEXT) seeks to discover the neutrinoless double beta ($\beta\beta 0\nu$) decay of $^{136}$Xe using a high-pressure xenon gas time projection chamber with electroluminescent amplification. The…
Micromegas is one of the detector technologies (along with the small Thin Gap Chambers) that has been chosen for precision tracking and triggering purposes of the ATLAS muon forward detectors in the view of LHC luminosity increase. To…
High precision flavor physics measurements are an essential complement to the direct searches for new physics at the LHC. Such measurements will be performed using the upgraded Belle II detector and upgraded KEKB accelerator. The status of…
We present data characterizing the performance of the first segmented, N-type Ge detector, isotopically enriched to 85% $^{76}$Ge. This detector, based on the Ortec PT6x2 design and referred to as SEGA (Segmented, Enriched Germanium…
The CKM angle $\gamma/\phi_{3}$ is the only one that is accessible with tree level decays in a theoretically clean way such that it provides a precision test of $CP$ violation in the standard model. The Belle II experiment is a substantial…
A high pressure xenon gas time projection chamber with electroluminescent amplification (EL HPGXe TPC) searching for the neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay offers: excellent energy resolution ($0.5-0.7\%$ FWHM at the…
EDELWEISS is a direct dark matter search situated in the low radioactivity environment of the Modane Underground Laboratory. The experiment uses Ge detectors at very low temperature in order to identify eventual rare nuclear recoils induced…
Large-size hybrid and pixelized GEM-Micromegas gaseous detectors (40x40 cm$^2$ active area) were developed and installed in 2014 and 2015 for the COMPASS2 physics program which started at the same time. That program involved in particular…
A novel type of resistive plate chamber, based on diamond-like carbon (DLC) electrodes is under development for background identification in the MEG II experiment. The DLC-RPC is required to have a radiation hardness to mass irradiation…
New results of a search for the ultra-rare decay $\mu \to e \gamma$ by the MEG collaboration are reported in this contribution. The data were taken during 2009 and correspond to approximately 6.5 10$^{13}$ muon stopped on target. A maximum…
The current CMS silicon pixel detector as the innermost component of the CMS experiment is performing well at LHC design luminosity, but would be subject to severe inefficiencies at LHC peak luminosities of 2x10e34 cm^-2 s^-1. Therefore, an…
The present status of double beta decay experiments is reviewed. The results of the most sensitive experiments are discussed. Proposals for future double beta decay experiments with a sensitivity to the $< m_{\nu} >$ at the level of…
An ultimate liquid xenon experiment would be limited in its dark matter science reach by irreducible neutrino backgrounds, which are an exciting signal in their own right. To achieve such sensitivity, other backgrounds that currently plague…
