The MAJORANA Experiment
The MAJORANA Collaboration
TL;DR
The paper reports on the progress of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, a research and development project aiming to build a large-scale germanium detector experiment to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay.
Contribution
It provides an update on the construction and development of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, a key step towards a tonne-scale neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment.
Findings
Construction of the DEMONSTRATOR is underway.
Approximately 40kg of germanium detectors are being assembled.
The project advances the feasibility of large-scale neutrinoless double-beta decay searches.
Abstract
The MAJORANA collaboration is actively pursuing research and development aimed at a tonne-scale 76Ge neutrinoless double-beta decay) experiment. The current, primary focus is the construction of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR experiment, an R&D effort that will field approximately 40kg of germanium detectors with mixed enrichment levels. This article provides a status update on the construction of the DEMONSTRATOR.
