Status of the SNO+ experiment

ORAL

Abstract

SNO+ is a large liquid scintillator detector following the successful SNO experiment with liquid scintillator replacing the heavy water. Located 2 km underground in Vale nickel mine in Sudbury, Canada, the experiment will detect solar neutrinos including the pep and CNO neutrinos, neutrinos from Earth, reactors, and supernovae. In addition, the experiment will search for neutrino-less double beta decay by adding 150-Nd to the scintillator. I will present the status of the experiment.
