Recently, the MicroBooNE experiment published a paper describing how they used convolutional neural networks — a particular type of deep neural network — to sort individual pixels coming from images made by a particular type of detector.
This instrument developed for DUNE can take 48 temperatures simultaneously and with expert precision.
From Kane County Connects, Sept. 4, 2018: The ICARUS neutrino detector moves into its Fermilab home.
Twenty photos, two detectors, one goal.
The National Science Foundation has awarded a $1.6 million grant to four U.S. universities for work on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.
From Michigan State University, Aug. 22, 2018: DUNE scientist Kendall Mahn of Michigan State University is featured in this article on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, which recently published its Interim Design Report.
From Meteoweb, July 26, 2018: Il Progetto PIP-II è un passo cruciale per la realizzazione del futuro esperimento DUNE che sarà realizzato nella struttura sperimentale a lunga distanza (LBNF) progettata dal Fermilab.
From World Nuclear News, Aug. 20, 2018: An intergovernmental agreement on a neutrino physics collaboration, signed with Fermilab in April, has opened the possibility of for in-kind contributions by the two countries to each other’s neutrino projects.
ICARUS now sits in the path of Fermilab’s neutrino beam, a milestone that brings the detector one step closer to taking data.
