Ion Source Development for IsoDAR and Multi-Messenger Astrophysics with KamLAND
Neutrinos can answer many open questions in physics. Doing so will require developing new technology, effective collaboration between experiments, and using existing data in new ways. This work presents contributions to these efforts with the IsoDAR, SNEWS, and KamLAND collaborations. The results …

Studying the background response of Minihalo for design optimizations
… Characterization Facility also called Minihalo Neutrino Detector is a planned research and development project that will enhance the detection capabilities of lead based neutrino detectors for supernova physics. It will will be used to construct low background He-3 counters for HALO-1kT …

The search for dark matter in xenon: Innovative calibration strategies and novel search channels
… scale, they have sensitivity to all flavors of supernova neutrinos via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering. I consider for the first time a realistic detector model to simulate the expected supernova neutrino signal for different progenitor masses and nuclear equations of state in …

Search for NuMI muDAR Electron Neutrinos in MicroBooNE
<p>Muon Decay-at-Rest (μDAR) produces electron-neutrinos (νe) in the 0 to 53 MeV energy range. The given range is especially interesting for its similarity to Supernovae-produced νe. The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) has as one of its main goals to measure Supernovae neutrinos on the …

Core-collapse supernovae in the great survey era
… A main science goal of LSST is to detect Type Ia supernovae, but the survey will also revolutionize our understanding of core-collapse events. LSST will observe ~ 10^5 core-collapse supernovae per year out to z ~ 1 and obtain the cosmic supernova rate by direct counting, in an unbiased way and …

Nuclear and particle interactions to multi-messenger signals: Core-collapse supernovae
… in a neighboring dwarf galaxy, whose light and neutrinos reached Earth in 1987. Supernova 1987A was observed optically but was also observed through roughly two dozen neutrinos. Modern instruments have the ability to measure electromagnetic signatures in more wavelengths and detect many more …

INVESTIGATING THE ORIGINS OF UHECRS USING THE PIERRE AUGER OBSERVATORY AND PALEO-DETECTORS
A very fascinating region for investigating the origins of cosmic rays is the toe of the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) spectrum, above ≈ 50 EeV. The potential for small magnetic deflections at these energies is coupled with the presence of flux suppression, which may be a sign of the …

SNO+ sensitivities to pre-supernova and supernova neutrinos
Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) deposit heavy elements into the surrounding interstellar medium, affect the chemical evolution of galaxies, and lead to the formation of exotic bodies such as neutron stars and black holes. Neutrinos are also generated deep in the core of the CCSN over the timescale …
