LABORATORI NAZIONALI DEL GRAN SASSO
The aim of the Institute is to get PhD students directly involved into the research projects of LNGS, the world-leading laboratory for underground astroparticle physics and nuclear astrophysics. Hands-on activities will focus on the following topics: - Dark matter (DAMA, XENON, DARK SIDE, CRESST) - Neutrinoless double beta decay (GERDA, CUORE, LUCIFER) - Neutrino oscillations (BOREXINO, OPERA, ICARUS) - Nuclear astrophysics (LUNA) - Low radioactivity measurements (STELLA) - Geodesy and general relativity (GINGER) A series of lectures will provide the background needed for the proposed activities. Students will report their results at the end of the Institute in a proceedings paper on a peer-reviewed journal.
