The SNO+ experiment is a multipurpose particle astrophysics detector located at SNOLAB. SNO+ has an extensive scientific programme that concentrates on neutrino physics and the search for neutrinoless double beta decay.
Recent news
33rd SNO+ Collaboration Meeting
The 33rd SNO+ Collaboration meeting was held at Laurentian University from March 22-25, 2023 to discuss the major updates and near-term goals of the experiment.
First Detection of Reactor Neutrinos in Water
We have identified antineutrinos from nuclear reactors located at least 240 km away using pure water. This is a first that pushes the capabilities of the established and highly-successful technology of large water Cherenkov detectors. This result could also impact approaches to nuclear nonproliferation using technology that is non-toxic, safe, easy to handle, and inexpensive.
Congratulations Dr Lorna Nolan
Lorna Nolan has recieved a PhD from Queen Mary University of London for "Cosmic muon induced background tagging in the SNO+ detector".
