We propose a novel detection concept for neutrinoless double-beta decay searches. This concept is based on a Time Projection Chamber (TPC) filled with high-pressure gaseous xenon, and with separated-function capabilities for calorimetry and tracking.

Information about the polarization of x-ray photons can be determined by probing the direction of emission of photoelectrons and the profile of the electron cloud produced in the detecting medium. In this work we present Monte Carlo results for the e
