LNGS: LECTURES ON DOUBLE BETA DECAY
LABORATORI NAZIONALI DEL GRAN SASSO
Lectures on Double Beta Decay will be held at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (Italy) on 25th and 26th of June, 2015. The event is organized in the framework of the activities of the EU funded CFA - Gran Sasso Center for Astroparticle Physics (Project "La Società della Conoscenza in Abruzzo" - PO FSE Abruzzo 2007-2013 - Piano degli Interventi 2009-2010-2011). The series of lectures will be focused on Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay, including theoretical motivations and models and experimental detection prospectives. The program of the lectures includes: 1) Massive neutrinos in nuclear processes (Dr. Fedor Šimkovic): the current status and perspective of the field of the single beta and double beta-decays is reviewed in the context of massive neutrinos. 2) The mechanisms of the neutrinoless double beta decay (Dr. Fedor Šimkovic): the recent progress in theoretical description of neutrinoless double beta decay is reviewed. 3) Nuclear matrix elements for double beta decay (Dr. Fedor Šimkovic): the current results of the calculation of the neutrinoless double beta decay Nuclear Matrix Elemets (NMEs) are discussed, in particular those achieved recently within the QRPA model. 4) Detecting neutrinoless double beta decay: current status and future challenges (Dr. Carlo Bucci): an overlook of planned experiments will be given, describing the advantages and downsides of upcoming and faraway projects. Finally, a discussion on the perspectives for a next-next generation of neutrinoless double beta decay experiments will be introduced. You can register to the event by using the registration form available on the event website. Registration deadline is June 15, 2015.
