- Coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering helps isolating the pure weak neutral current interaction. After the first recent observation of elastic coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering by the COHERENT collaboration, other experiments are underway. We will discuss the physics reach of these experiments and relate them to other neutrino experiments (e.g., at Fermilab and J-PARC).
- Physics of neutron skins: Along with the PREX and CREX collaborations at Jefferson Laboratory (JLab), measurements of neutron skins with PVES at MAMI and MESA and corresponding nuclear structure calculations constitute an important part of the physics program in Mainz.
- Electron and muon nucleus interactions: The proton radius puzzle suggests that muons may feel the proton being smaller than electrons do. A similar situation is observed for the deuteron, but not for helium isotopes. The MUSE experiment at PSI is dedicated to a direct comparison of e± and μ± scattering off the proton within the same experiment. Ongoing activity aimed at improving the precision of proton and deuteron charge radii using electron scattering is one of the core topics of the Mainz experimental program.
- Parity violation in atomic systems with the goal of determining weak nuclear charges and anapole moments in chains of isotopes is also a strong component of research in Mainz. The interpretation of experimental results relies upon atomic theory calculations and requires a good knowledge of the neutron distribution in heavy nuclei.

In order to enable an iCal export link, your account needs to have an API key created. This key enables other applications to access data from within Indico even when you are neither using nor logged into the Indico system yourself with the link provided. Once created, you can manage your key at any time by going to 'My Profile' and looking under the tab entitled 'HTTP API'. Further information about HTTP API keys can be found in the Indico documentation.
Additionally to having an API key associated with your account, exporting private event information requires the usage of a persistent signature. This enables API URLs which do not expire after a few minutes so while the setting is active, anyone in possession of the link provided can access the information. Due to this, it is extremely important that you keep these links private and for your use only. If you think someone else may have acquired access to a link using this key in the future, you must immediately create a new key pair on the 'My Profile' page under the 'HTTP API' and update the iCalendar links afterwards.
