On November 5th and 6th, the 35th meeting of the LSC Scientific Advisory Committee took place. The Committee heard presentations from the DArT, BabyIAXO, TREX-DM, and NEXT experiments and reviewed written reports from the other experiments. In addition, researcher Juan José Gómez Cadenas (DIPC) shared the future plan for the NEXT experiment, which includes the development of NEXT-HD: a TPC with 1 ton of enriched xenon, designed for the search for neutrinoless double beta decay.

Bio Platform: experiment “Learning from microGravity and non-Cosmic radiaction in Fishnauts”

By |25 October, 2024|Categories: Featured, Generals|Comments Off on Bio Platform: experiment “Learning from microGravity and non-Cosmic radiaction in Fishnauts”

During the week of October 7th, the first experiment with vertebrates was conducted at the LSC, led by researcher Laia Ribas, one of the crew members of the Hypatia I project. The aim of the experiment is to study the impact of microgravity and the absence of radiation on two species: zebrafish, a key model in biomedical research, and sea bass, a species commonly used in aquaculture. The results of GraCosFish will bring us closer to the possibility of raising fish in space.

LSC Seminars: “ANAIS-112: the most sensitive experiment to test DAMA/LIBRA signal”

By |23 October, 2024|Categories: Featured, Generals|Comments Off on LSC Seminars: “ANAIS-112: the most sensitive experiment to test DAMA/LIBRA signal”

Iván Coarasa, a researcher from the University of Zaragoza and a member of the ANAIS collaboration, has presented the results after 6 years of data taking on the dark matter signal modulation with ANAIS. The results show an incompatibility with the DAMA/LIBRA signal at nearly 4σ. ANAIS-112 is leading international efforts in the search for this signal in a model-independent way, with a projected sensitivity of 5σ by the end of 2025.
