Could LiquidO help measuring one day the critical and most challenging still unobserved 40K geoneutrinos contribution of the Earth, including a few mysteries around it?
The answer below in our just released preprint!

Sunday afternoon session at #Moriond thread: Diana introduces @LiquidODetector. Beautiful localisation of interactions in opaque scintillator: both predicted and experimentally tested with a 10l prototype

We have a postdoc position available @PhysicsAtSussex on #Neutrinos, @LiquidODetector R&D and #machinelearning.

CNRS/IN2P3 interview article focuses on SuperChooz in light of the start of its “Pathfinder” exploration phase upon the signature of the dedicated agreement between CNRS and EDF national directions.

The high scientific interest in #LiquidO’s potential has long been pacing our R&D, which is now further challenged to support a ~10kton scale #neutrino #detector for @SuperChooz (teapaw.org/Superchooz/status/1569…) in the horizon of 2030.
The forming #SuperChooz international #collaboration, scientifically led by @AnataelCabrera, aims for a new era of unprecedented #Europe-based #neutrino #fundamental #physics benefiting from the @CNRS-@EDFofficiel founding partnership and the @LiquidODetector technology expertise
Today’s developments in #LiquidO remain focused on the imminent (≤2025) several-tons scale #detector (UND) while the @novaexperiment, with similar technology, provides a formidable and encouraging precedent for the plausible feasibility of the @SuperChooz's SFD well on time.

@SuperChooz vise à installer 3 détecteurs sur le site @EDFChooz : un grand de 10.000 m3 situé à 1km des réacteurs Chooz B et installé dans la caverne de l’ancien réacteur nucléaire Chooz A, en cours de démantèlement, et 2 plus petits détecteurs de 10 m3 jouxtant Chooz B.

#Événement 🗓| Le 7 sept. l’IN2P3 et @EDFofficiel ont signé l'accord exploratoire ✍️ pour tester la faisabilité d’un grand projet d’étude des #neutrinos installé sur le site de la #centrale @EDFChooz et doté d’une technologie de détection radicalement nouvelle : @LiquidODetector.

@LiquidODetector promet de révolutionner l’observation des #neutrinos avec une précision jamais atteinte. A Chooz, il permettrait d’étudier simultanément dans un même détecteur les neutrinos du soleil et les antineutrinos des réacteurs nucléaires.

SuperChooz is a future fundamental #neutrino #science #experiment to be located at the #Europe's powerful #reactor #neutrino site: the @EDFofficiel #Chooz reactor plant. The project's exploration is currently led by @CNRS and @EDFofficiel.

@AnataelCabrera et al. introduce an opaque scintillator detector concept for future neutrino experiments with increased capacity for particle identification and a natural affinity for doping. @jeffhartnell @MPravikoff @tjcbezerra @LiquidODetector nature.com/articles/s42005-0…

Excited to be part of the R&D for this new technology and proud to be co-editor of this paper. Opaque scintillators are a whole new (counter-intuitive!) way of thinking about particle detection. The future is cloudy but that's the whole point...
We are delighted to announce that our first paper has been published. Pioneered by a consortium composed of specialised scientists in 23 institutions over 9 countries, the new “LiquidO” concept and proof-of-principle was published in @Nature's @CommsPhys: nature.com/articles/s42005-0…

It started ~10 years ago with a crazy “too good to be true” idea breaking with dominant “transparency” paradigm in fundamental particle detection so far. It turned out to be right, as proved in this Nature and LiquidO remains an amazing framework with possible discoveries ahead!

LiquidO's capabilities afford it a wide range of applications in many areas of high-energy, nuclear, medical, and accelerator physics, many of which are under active exploration.
