Beschreibung
The SNO+ experiment is a large multi-purpose neutrino detector, based 2km underground in Sudbury, Canada. A phased approach to its target deployment has allowed for a variety of neutrino physics to be explored, including reactor, geo-, solar, and supernova neutrinos. It also allows for effective background and detector characterisation in preparation for the loading of tellurium into the liquid scintillator target, enabling a search for neutrinoless double beta decay. This talk will give an overview of the detector, major results that have been recently published, and the status of the neutrinoless double beta decay project.
