DESCRIPTION:Neutrinoless double beta decay experiments try to establish wh
 ether neutrinos are their own antiparticles by searching for an ultra-rare
  radioactive process. A discovery would have major implications for parti
 cle physics and cosmology\, but requires tonne-scale detectors with backgr
 ounds below 1 count per tonne per year. This poses a formidable technical 
 challenge that has prompted a diverse and dynamic worldwide experimental e
 ffort.\n\nThe NEXT Collaboration uses a high pressure xenon gas time proje
 ction chamber with electroluminescent amplification\, which offers excelle
 nt energy resolution\, particle tracking for background suppression and sc
 alability to large source masses. \n\nIn this presentation\, we present a
  complete characterisation of several wavelength-shifting fibres that will
  be used in a future fibre-barrel light detection system\, as well as a gr
 aph-based machine learning model for event classification. These two contr
 ibutions will help to improve the energy resolution and background rejecti
 on in future NEXT detectors.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/8804/
