Group II - Astroparticle Physics

The experiments within the INFN “Group II” focus on experimental astroparticle physics, neutrino physics and gravitational waves. There are many research lines, each investigating in more detail different aspects of the field.

The following list contains the experiments being active in Padova, in collaboration with other INFN sections and/or facilities, laboratories, national and international organizations. Some of these projects are made possible with funding from organizations other than INFN (e.g. the EU, the Italian Ministry of Research – MIUR – and more).
