  • Searching for heavy neutrinos with muon detectors

    Searching for heavy neutrinos with muon detectors

    Two key properties of neutrinos in the standard model of particle physics (SM) are that they are massless and “left-handed”, i.e. their spin is always opposite to their momentum.

  • Detector showers wash away backgrounds of new long-lived particles

    Detector showers wash away backgrounds of new long-lived particles

    Most searches for new physics beyond the standard model (SM) focus on particles that decay almost instantly after being produced.
