WL 241
Experiments
DUNE
Science goal: Enable the study of parameters that determine the matter-antimatter imbalance in the Universe and the ordering of neutrino mass states.
Group involvement: The Heeger Group is responsible for the assembly of Charge Readout Planes at Wright Lab and studying the detector response.
CUORE & CUPID
Science goal: Search for neutrinoless double beta decay, which could answer why we live in a Universe of matter, not antimatter.
Group involvement: Yale is responsible for detector calibration, the study of cosmogenic backgrounds, double beta decay analysis, & the search for solar axions. Heeger and Reina Maruyama are CO-PIs of CUORE & CUPID.
