Lectures on Double Beta Decay

25 Jun 2015, 09:00 → 26 Jun 2015, 16:30 Europe/Rome

Majorana room (LNGS)

Andrea Mammarella (INFN - LNGS), Carla Macolino (INFN - GSSI), Fabio Cappella (INFN - LNGS), Giulia Pagliaroli (INFN - LNGS), Natalia Di Marco (INFN - LNGS), Riccardo Cerulli (INFN - LNGS)

 

A series of lectures on Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay held in the framework of the EU funded CFA - Gran Sasso Center for Astroparticle Physics.

Lectures will be focused on those subjects of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay from theoretical motivations and models to detection challenges and will be given by:

• Fedor Šimkovic (JINR Dubna & Comenius University)

• Carlo Bucci (INFN - LNGS)
