AbstraktAbstract
The discovery of neutrinoless double beta decay (0𝜈𝛽𝛽) would be an important step in the understanding of the nature of the neutrino. SuperNEMO is an experiment designed to search for 0𝜈𝛽𝛽, whose demonstrator module is located in Modane Underground Laboratory in France (LSM, 4800 m.w.e). It uses a unique technique combining a tracker and a segmented, scintillator-based calorimeter that allows to unambiguously identify the two final-state electrons and measure their time of flight and energy. It aims to achieve an ultra-low background level of < 10−4 events/(keV.kg.yr) and its topological reconstruction allows us to probe double-beta decay mechanisms.
