Abstract

A large liquid-scintillator detector with 50 kt target mass in an underground location of at least 4000 m.w.e. is considered as a unique tool for low-energy neutrino detection and the search for rare events from astrophysical sources and up to now unobserved processes beyond the Standard Model. In this contribution, the physics potential of LENA for selected topics is discussed.
