The definitive observation of neutrinoless double beta decay, (A, Z) $\to$ (A, Z+2) + 2$e^-$, would have two profound implications: it would establish that neutrinos are Majorana fermions and reveal that lepton number is not conserved. This relevance has caused a worldwide search for this process, using various isotopes and detector technologies. I will present in my talk a review of the...

In this talk I will review the current status of neutrino oscillations. Emphasis will be given to the determination of neutrino mass hierarchy and CP violating phase. I will also quickly summarize the progress towards LBNE and the status of short baseline anomalies.

The period of the Universe known as Cosmic Dawn is marked by the formation of the first stars, before 100 million years after the Big Bang. These stars formed due to the gravitational collapse of primordial neutral hydrogen gas left over after the release of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The ultraviolet radiation that these stars emitted penetrated the atoms of the surrounding neutral...
