In the news – DUNE partners

The B1M channel, the world’s largest online video channel for construction projects, describes the LBNF/DUNE project and how it will help us continue to advance particle physics research.

Fermilab directors and technicians were at Unicamp recently as part of the technical visit schedule of the research program for neutrino identification called LBNF/DUNE. The Brazilian team is developing the technology for photodetection of the light generated by the particle detectors and the production of highly pure liquid argon.

In South Dakota, at SURF, scientists have built three huge tunnels about 1,500 meters below the ground. Here, a massive experiment called DUNE is taking place with more than 1,400 scientists from 35 countries.

The BBC covers how the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will study the change in neutrinos and anti-neutrinos as they travel 800-miles from Fermilab in Illinois to SURF in South Dakota.

SDPB speaks with the science director at SURF about the outfitting massive underground caverns at SURF.
The caverns are currently having utilities, like fire suppression and duct work installed and will host cryostats for DUNE’s far detectors.

Brazil is a leading collaborator in the development of innovative technologies for the DUNE experiment. The State University of Campinas (Unicamp) is developing technologies for the liquid argon purification process and the X-Arapuca light detector.

This Liquid Nitrogen market report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market.

The DUNE experiment with study neutrinos and antineutrinos. A recent paper suggests DUNE might also be able to detect and confirm the existence of large extra dimensions.

A study published in the Journal of High Energy Physics proposes that the enigmatic behavior of neutrinos could be explained if there exist extra spatial dimensions on the scale of micrometers and the familiar three dimensions of space. The theory of large extra dimensions offers a potential explanation for the origin of the tiny neutrino masses not covered int he Standard Model of Physics.

A newly published white paper outlines the next 10 years of global research into the behavior of neutrinos that could explain why the universe has more matter than antimatter. One of those neutrino projects is DUNE, the most ambitious neutrino research project led by Fermilab. The paper was an ambitious undertaking of the more than 170 contributors from 118 organizations and was a result of Snowmass 2021/2022.
