Description

The event will take place on Aug 31, 2026, starting at 10:30, at the IBS Headquarters (B109) in Daejeon.

This one-day workshop will explore the feasibility of Yemilab as a candidate site for the nEXO experiment. Participants will discuss the laboratory's infrastructure, overburden, and environmental conditions relevant to next-generation neutrinoless double beta decay searches, alongside logistical and scientific considerations for a potential nEXO deployment. The workshop aims to bring together the nEXO collaboration and Yemilab representatives to assess site requirements and identify next steps toward a formal feasibility evaluation.
