Project
SoLid (HERC34)
The search for sterile neutrinos is a next step in the fundamental research of elementary particles and their interactions. With SoLid, we created a new international collaboration of 11 research centers spread across Europe and the United States.
Together we develop and exploit a novel neutrino detector near the core of the BR2 research reactor of the SCK-CEN in Mol. With this instrument we aim to study short-baseline neutrino oscillations, a phenomenon that can reveal new physics in the neutrino sector and perhaps an indication of the nature of dark matter.
