Detector Physics for 0νΒΒ

Presented by Neil McFadden, UNM

The search for 0νΒΒ decay is an exciting field not only because of the large chance of discovery, but also the novel techniques used. To achieve zero background experimental environments needed to search 0νΒΒ signal, new techniques must be developed to ensure the most radio pure materials are used. Additionally new techniques of background rejection must be developed in the lab and with simulation in order to meet experimental background goals. This talk will describe efforts at UNM to achieve just this.
