The search of the neutrinoless double-b decay address the major Physics goals of revealing the nature of the neutrino and setting an absolute scale for its mass. The observation of a positive bb 0n signal, the unique signature of Majorana neutrinos, would have deep consequences in particle physics a

β¦ Synopsis
The MUNU experiment has been recently built to measure the neutrino magnetic moment at a reactor. Its central part, at the same time target and detector, is a 1 m 3 TPC filled with 3 bar of CF4. This TPC is surrounded by active and passive vetos. The performance of this detector will be described.

We present results from the first exposure of a liquid Ar time projection chamber to a neutrino beam. The data have been collected in 1997 with a 50 liter ICARUS-like chamber located between the CHORUS and NOMAD experiment at the CERN West Area Neutrino Facility. We focus on the analysis of quasi-el
