Department Colloquium | Crazy Ideas in Neutrino Physics (and making them happen)
Joshua Spitz (U-M Physics)
I will present four "crazy" ideas in and and around neutrino physics and their implementation:
1. Use liquid argon as a detection medium to study the neutrino's impact on the Universe.
2. Perform Rutherford scattering with neutrinos to better understand the neutrino interaction with matter.
3. Use ancient minerals as particle detectors to elucidate the nature of dark matter, astrophysical neutrinos, proton decay, and aspects of geochronology.
4. Bring a particle accelerator underground and couple it to a big detector to search for new physics involving neutrinos.
