โฆ Synopsis
The world's largest (1000 ton) liquid scintillator detector KamLAND has been challenging low energy neutrino detection such as reactor neutrinos and geologically produced neutrinos (geoneutrinos) since its operation started in January 2002. KamLAND is now going to start the direct measurement of 7 Be solar neutrinos. In this report recent results and the status of KamLAND including on-going activities aiming at the solar neutrino detection are reported.

KamLAND demonstrated the reactor ฮฝe disappearance at long baselines and high confidence level (99.95%) for the first time. The ฮฝe flux from the sun was also searched and no candidates events were found, allowing for the most stringent upper limit. The present status of the geoneutrino search and the
