Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a next generation underground
reactor antineutrino experiment, is proposed to determine the
neutrino mass hierarchy and precisely measure neutrino oscillation parameters using a
massive liquid scintillator detector underground. The experimental
hall, spanning more than 50 meters, is under a granite mountain of over 700 m overburden.

Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) viewed as the extension of Standard Model (SM) are proposed and unify the strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions at the order of $10^{15}$-$10^{16}$ GeV which is unreachable by accelerators. Since the three interactions are described by a single coupling constant in the GUTs, the violation of baryon number is allowed, and rare processes such as proton...
The neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering (CEvNS) has the largest cross-section among all interaction channels for MeV neutrinos, making it a promising way to monitor nuclear reactors remotely. Liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXeTPC) is a promising technology for CEvNS search, thanks to its low background and low energy threshold. The RELICS (REactor neutrino LIquid xenon Coherent...
LiquidO is a novel detector technology that uses the stochastic confinement of scintillation light in an opaque medium allowing for the capture of distinct event topologies. To collect this light a lattice of wavelength-shifting fibers run through the medium, which are then read out using silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). By leveraging the distinct event topologies observed, we can increase...
The search for neutrinoless double beta (0$\nu\beta\beta$) decay is considered as the most promising way to prove the Majorana nature of neutrinos as well as to give an indication on the mass hierarchy and on the absolute mass scale. The discovery of 0$\nu\beta\beta$ decay would moreover open the way for theories predicting the observed matter anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe being a...
Neutrino oscillations (NOs), known for their nonclassical behavior via violations of the Leggett–Garg inequality, offer potential for quantum information applications. Motivated by recent anomalies in NO$\nu$A and T2K suggesting physics beyond the Standard Model, we explore entanglement in three-flavor NOs under the influence of off-diagonal non-standard interactions (NSIs). Focusing on the...
The tiny neutrino masses are most naturally explained by seesaw mechanism through singlet right-handed neutrinos, which can further explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. In this work, we propose a new approach to study cosmological signatures of neutrino seesaw through the interaction between inflaton and right-handed neutrinos, which arises from a dimension-5 operator...
We investigate the production of hyperons, charmed baryons, and potential hadronic molecular states in neutrino–proton reaction, a process characterized by a particularly clean final state. Employing effective Lagrangians, chiral perturbation theory, and a hadronic molecular model, we perform theoretical calculations for several relevant channels, including those leading to the formation of...
Since 2019, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has issued real-time neutrino alerts via the General Coordinates Network (GCN), following the successful identification of a high-energy neutrino event, IceCube-170922A, in association with a multiwavelength flare from the blazar TXS~0506+056. Although many high-energy neutrinos have been observed since then, their astrophysical counterparts remain...
