After six weeks’ passage across the ocean, up rivers and on the road, the newest member of Fermilab’s family of neutrino detectors has arrived.
From The Beacon-News, July 26, 2017: Fermilab scientist Catherine James reflects on the large box sitting on a flatbed that contained half of the ICARUS liquid-argon particle detector, at 60 feet long and 120 tons the largest of its kind, which she will work with when its installed and running by the end of the year.
From LiveScience, July 21, 2017: On the occasion of the LBNF/DUNE groundbreaking, Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explains why neutrinos are so compelling.
From Popular Mechanics, July 21, 2017: The DUNE experiment will study neutrinos and antineutrinos and possibly unravel the secrets of the universe.
This experimental physicist has followed the ICARUS neutrino detector from Gran Sasso to Geneva to Chicago.
In 1990, Penny Kasper, Danying Yi and I were all graduate students on the E791 experiment.
From CNN, July 22, 2017: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explains how the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, which had its groundbreaking ceremony on July 21, could answer important questions of the universe, including, “Where did the antimatter go?”.
Hubert van Hecke, a heavy-ion physicist, transforms particle physics plots into works of art.
After a six-week journey from CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, the ICARUS detector is expected to arrive at Fermilab late afternoon today, July 26.
