KamLAND-Zen (KamLAND ZEro Neutrino double beta decay search) is a double beta decay experiment with ~300 kg of 90% enriched Xe-136 nuclei loaded into liquid scintillator.
Double beta decay (2nu mode) described by the process A(Z) -> A(Z+2) +2e- + 2nu is allowed by the standard model and has been measured with various isotopes. On the other hand, 0nu mode described as A(Z) -> A(Z+2) +2e- which...

The IceCube detector, which is embedded in the glacial ice at the geographic South
Pole, is the first neutrino telescope to comprise a volume of one cubic kilometer. With
the construction of the detector being completed in early 2011, it now consists of a
total of 5484 optical modules. While its primary goal is search for neutrinos of
astrophysical origin, in conjunction with its surface...
