Elusives Journal Club: Glenn Richardson, Yale, "Observation of low-lying isomeric states in 136Cs: a new avenue for dark matter and solar neutrino detection in xenon detectors"
Glenn Richardson will lead a discussion on the paper “Observation of low-lying isomeric states in 136Cs: a new avenue for dark matter and solar neutrino detection in xenon detectors,” which discusses the discovery of a new low lying quasi-stable state of Cs that can be used to detect solar neutrinos and fermionic dark matter. We’ll begin the discussion with a brief summary of the paper, so please still come and discuss even if you can’t find the time to read it!
