In the news – DUNE partners

From Colorado State University, Oct. 25, 2018: Colorado State University contributes detectors to the ProtoDUNE detector at CERN.

From FAPAESP’s Pesquisa, Oct. 18, 2018: Em meados de setembro, partículas vindas do espaço começaram a atravessar um tanque em forma de cubo com 6 metros de altura, instalado na Cern, na Suíça, e deixar rastros de luz que foram captados por detectores criados no Brasil.

From the University of Houston, Oct. 11, 2018: ProtoDUNE, a prototype for what will be a much bigger detector at the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, has been recording particle tracks, and physicists all over the world are collecting the data.

From University College London news, Oct. 5, 2018: International scientists are one step closer to answering the most fundamental question of our existence, ‘why are we here?’, as part of a global collaboration, DUNE, involving UCL researchers.

From William & Mary, Sept. 18, 2018: Scientists on the DUNE collaboration think that neutrinos may help answer one of the most pressing questions in physics: why we live in a universe dominated by matter. The project includes a substantial William & Mary contingent.

From University of Manchester, Sept. 18, 2018: The largest liquid-argon neutrino detector in the world has recorded its first particle tracks, signaling the start of a new chapter in the story of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. The university is playing a leading role in a £65million flagship global science project.

From CERN, Sept. 18, 2018: The technology of the first ProtoDUNE detector will be the same to be used for the first of the DUNE detector modules in the United States.

From Brookhaven, Sept. 18, 2018: The enormous ProtoDUNE detector – the size of a three-story house and the shape of a gigantic cube – was built at CERN as the first of two prototypes for what will be a much, much larger detector for the DUNE project, hosted by Fermilab.

From STFC, Sept. 18, 2018: The enormous ProtoDUNE detector is the largest liquid-argon neutrino detector in the world. The size of a three-story house and the shape of a gigantic cube it has just recorded its first particle tracks signaling the start of a new chapter in the story of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.
