The experimental evidence for BSM physics such as the non-zero neutrino masses, the baryon asymmetry in the Universe, and the presence of non-baryonic dark matter may have their origin in new physics involving very weakly interacting particles as predicted by models with a secluded or hidden sector of particles. In general, these models contain mediators that couple very weakly with SM...

The study of the neutrino oscillation has made important advances in the recent years with the measuremement of the last mixing angle theta13. This has opened up the interesting prospect of probing CP violation effects in the leptonic sector.
In this talk I will review the status of the neutrino oscillation studies, with particular emphasis on the most recent results from T2K and NOvA, with...

Use of ultracold neutrons (UCN) gives unique opportunities of a research of fundamental interactions in physics of elementary particles. Search of the electric dipole moment of a neutron (EDM) aims to test of theories of CP violation. Precision measurement of neutron lifetime is extremely important for cosmology and astrophysics. Considerable progress in these questions can be reached due to...

The search for neutrinoless double beta decay might be
the only window to observe lepton number violation and
is therefore considered to be of highest relevance.
The isotope 76Ge has historically been most important
for this search and the ongoing experiment GERDA
has the lowest background and best energy resolution of all experiments in the
field. The talk reviews the motivation, the...

Existing models of hadron-hadron interactions do not give comprehensive description of the result of cosmic ray investigations above 1015eV. Observed phenomena: changes of cosmic ray spectrum and mass composition, “muon puzzle”, various unusual events cannot be explained in frame existing models. The model of quark-gluon blobs allows explain all observed in cosmic rays phenomena and events...
