Sterile Neutrino Search at Underground mini-Workshop

1 Jul 2021, 08:00 → 2 Jul 2021, 12:40 Asia/Seoul

Virtual (Virtual IBS)

Sterile neutrino is currently a hot topic in particle physics from theory to experiment, based on new ideas or using various technologies. A new underground Yemilab in Korea would be a good place to search for sterile neutrinos. This mini-workshop aims to find common interests and efforts on sterile neutrino search at underground using beam neutrinos.

Any interesting ideas on sterile neutrino physics and new technologies are very welcome!
