First studies of event discrimination with a Broad-Energy Germanium (BEGe) detector are
presented. A novel pulse shape method, exploiting the characteristic electrical field …

We report results of air monitoring started due to the recent natural catastrophe on 11 March
2011 in Japan and the severe ensuing damage to the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear reactor …

The search for neutrinoless double beta decay is a very active field in which the number of
proposals for next-generation experiments has proliferated. In this paper we attempt to …

The neutrinoless double β-decay of nuclei is reviewed. We discuss neutrino mixing and 3× 3
PMNS neutrino mixing matrix. Basic theory of neutrinoless double β-decay is presented in …

We report results of the first 3× 3 “multiangle” simulation of the evolution of neutrino flavor in
the core-collapse supernova environment. In particular, we follow neutrino flavor …

We explore two bilarge neutrino mixing Anzätze within the context of Abelian flavor
symmetry theories:(BL 1) sin⁡ θ 12∼ λ, sin⁡ θ 13∼ λ, sin⁡ θ 23∼ λ, and (BL 2) sin⁡ θ 12∼ …

The next generation of low-background physics experiments will require the use of materials
with unprecedented radio-purity. A gamma-counting facility at the Kimballton Underground …

The generic predictions of inverse Majorana neutrino mass matrix, Mν− 1 with texture two
zeros, in the basis where charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal, have been obtained for …

The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) is an ultra-low background experiment under
construction at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso. GERDA will search for {sup 76} Ge …

Neutrinoless double-beta decay searches play a major role in determining the nature of
neutrinos, the existence of a lepton violating process, and the effective Majorana neutrino …
