Plastic scintillator detectors with 3D granularity and sub-nanosecond time resolution provide simultaneous particle tracking, identification, and calorimetry. The 3DET R&D collaboration has developed a novel additive manufacturing technique that enables the monolithic fabrication of finely segmented 3D scintillators, consisting of a matrix of optically isolated scintillating voxels with...
One of the major physics goals of the FASER experiment at CERN LHC is to study the highest-energy human-made neutrinos. These neutrinos enable investigations of neutrino interactions at the TeV energy scale as well as rare processes such as charm production. In the upcoming LHC Run 4, the increased luminosity will lead to significantly higher collision rates, providing substantially larger...
In this talk I will discuss the dark matter science case for the future TRIDENT neutrino telescope. We have recently performed a sensitivity study for galactic dark matter annihilations and found that TRIDENT will be able to reach the thermal relic target for dark matter for masses between 1-100 TeV. We contextualized this result in the wider search for dark matter by studying a specific dark...
