About
The Valencia Experimental Group of Astroparticles (VEGA) works in the neutrino telescopes ANTARES and KM3NeT. Our group has a broad research program that spans both neutrino astronomy and particle physics. We actively work in a variety of topics, such as the search for neutrino point sources (both steady and in relation with transient sources), the search for neutrino non-standard interactions, neutrino decay and sterile neutrinos. We also search for dark matter looking for the high-energy neutrino signals that they could produce when annihilating at the center of heavy astrophysical objects.
The group also participates in the construction of the detector, especially in the electronics and the nanobeacons, devices to synchronize the detector components.
