The XENON collaboration aims at a direct detection of dark matter. The XENONnT detector is operating since 2020 at undeground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy, and it is currently taking data for the second science run. It is the latest and the biggest of the XENON experiment series. With an impressive 5.9 tons of liquid xenon as its active target mass, XENONnT features substantial...

Global Argon Dark Matter Collaboration. DarkSide-20k comprises a target mass of 50 tonnes of
low-radioactivity underground argon (UAr) in a dual phase time projection chamber (TPC),
surrounded by an instrumented inner neutron veto and outer cosmic veto. The main aim of this
detector is to search for the... -

The High Energy Particle Detector (HEPD-02) is primarily devoted to observe fluxes of cosmic-ray electrons, protons and light nuclei, with kinetic energies in the MeV range – up to a few hundreds. HEPD-02 will be hosted on-board the China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite CSES-02, on a quasi-polar, low-Earth orbit; the launch is currently foreseen in December 2024.

The Compton Pair (ComPair) telescope 1 is a prototype that aims to develop the necessary technologies for future medium energy gamma-ray missions, and was designed, built, and tested in a gamma-ray beam and balloon flight. ComPair 1 consists of 4 detector subsystems: a double-sided silicon strip detector (DSSD) Tracker, a novel high-resolution Frisch-grid cadmium zinc telluride (CZT)...

In the context of the PTSD project, we are currently developing a demonstrator to increase the Technological Readiness Level of LGAD Si-microstrip tracking detectors. Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGAD) is a consolidated technology developed for particle detectors at colliders which allows for simultaneous and accurate time (<100 ps) and position (~ 10 µm) resolutions with segmented Si sensors....

KM3NeT is a distributed, deep-sea, Cherenkov neutrino observatory under realization in the Mediterranean Sea with two detectors: ARCA, for neutrino astronomy close to Italy, and ORCA, for studying the neutrino oscillations close to France. Each detector is made of a large tridimensional array of optical modules, connected and controlled from a remote shore-station. Each optical module is a...

Sterile neutrinos are a natural extension of the Standard Model of

particle physics. If their mass is in the keV range, they are a viable
dark matter candidate. One way to search for sterile neutrinos in
a laboratory-based experiment is via tritium beta decay. A sterile
neutrino with a mass up to 18.6 keV would manifest itself in the decay
spectrum as a kink-like distortion. The objective... -

The RES-NOVA project will directly detect neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae (SN) via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS) using an array of archaeological lead (Pb) based low temperature calorimeters. To enhance the detection cross-section, archaeological kg-scale Pb based crystals will be used, to achieve the highest cross section for CEνNS with the unique ultra-high...
