One of the fundamental questions in particle physics is still unanswered: Are neutrinos their own antiparticles? The search for an answer leads to an extremely rare nuclear decay process, the neutrinoless double-beta decay (0nbb). While paving the way for a new ton-scale experiment, the GERDA…

For the first time ever, scientists have measured the electromagnetic and gravitational signals generated by the collision of two neutron stars. In a special research project led by the Technical University of Munich (TUM), physicists with the Collaborative Research Center 1258 "Neutrinos and Dark…

Elisa Resconi was named Max Planck Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Physics (MPP). She will build a new research group dedicated to the theoretical and experimental aspects of neutrino physics. Elisa Resconi is Professor for Experimental Physics with Cosmic Particles at the TUM and…
