THE TEXONO RESEARCH PROGRAM ON NEUTRINO AND ASTROPARTICLE PHYSICS
/ Abstract
This article reviews the research program and efforts for the TEXONO Collaboration on neutrino and astro-particle physics. The core program is on reactor-based low energy neutrino physics at the Kuo-Sheng (KS) Power Plant in Taiwan. The facilities of the laboratory is described. A limit on the neutrino magnetic moment of $\mu_{\bar{\nu_{\rm e}}}< 1.3\times 10^{-10}\ \mu_{\rm B}$ at 90% confidence level was derived from measurements with a high purity germanium detector. Other physics topics at KS, as well as the various R&D program, are discussed.
