<div>Hi all,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For our colloquium next week we will have Julieta Gruszko from UNC visiting. Julieta is a member of the LEGEND collaboration and interested in machine learning applications to their detector. I've attached her title and abstract below.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please let me know if you'd be interested in meeting with her! As usual, people interested in lunch or dinner would be especially welcome.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best wishes,<br>
Max</div>

<div>Title: Discovering the Origin of Matter with LEGEND</div>
<div>Abstract: The search for neutrinoless double-beta decay is currently one of the most compelling challenges in physics, with the potential to reveal the origin of the neutrino's mass, demonstrate lepton number violation, and provide hints of the mechanism
behind the matter anti-matter asymmetry we observe in our universe. Detecting this ultra-rare process, however, requires us to build very large detectors with very low background rates. The LEGEND experiment searches for the neutrinoless double-beta decay
of 76Ge with hundreds of kilograms of detectors. I'll discuss LEGEND-200's first results and LEGEND-1000's projected discovery potential, as well as some of the machine learning-based analysis techniques my group is developing to make these experiments even
more sensitive.</div>
