Neutrino Detectors - Lecture 3

Explore the intricacies of neutrino detection in this comprehensive lecture on Neutrino Detectors. Delve into the third installment of a series presented by Gobinda Majumder at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Learn about the specialized equipment and techniques used to observe these elusive particles that only interact via the weak force. Discover how large-scale experiments are designed to capture neutrino interactions, and understand the challenges faced in distinguishing neutrino signals from background noise. Gain insights into various detector types, their working principles, and their applications in neutrino physics research. This lecture is part of a broader program aimed at understanding the universe through neutrinos, covering topics from the Standard Model of particle physics to open questions in neutrino science. Ideal for PhD students and early-career researchers in particle physics, this hour-long presentation offers valuable knowledge for those looking to advance their understanding of neutrino detection methods and their significance in modern physics.
