Description

The Homestake Mine in South Dakota is the proposed site for a new underground laboratory in the US. Several large underground physics experiments are being proposed in Homestake. Here it is summarised the physics goals, sensitivities, and status of three of these projects: i) the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter experiment II) the demonstrator for the MAJORANA neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment, and III) the Lng Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE).
