| On Jan. 23, Fermilab broke ground for a one-of-its-kind research facility to develop and operate particle detectors that use liquid-argon technology to explore the mysteries of energy, matter, space and time. The new generation of liquid-argon detectors will allow scientists to observe neutrino interactions with greater precision and resolution than ever before. The MicroBooNE experiment, which comprises a 170-ton neutrino detector, will be the first to move into the new facility. You can watch the three-minute video of the groundbreaking here. |
