Fermilab, CERN snd SURF crews have started building the first of 2 massive cryostats, or giant insulated containers designed to hold liquid argon at extremely cold temperatures for the DUNE experiment.

Teams from Fermilab, CERN, and SURF have teamed up to begin construction on the cryostats that will house approximately 17,000 tons of liquid argon.

Researchers supported by the Department of Energy are delving into the cosmic microwave background to better understand the early universe.

Black Hills State University has officially become an institutional member of DUNE, joining the international collaboration of more than 1,500 collaborators representing 228 institutions in 38 countries and CERN.

The QICK tool kit developed at Fermilab is reaching new markets, thanks to the DOE Energy I-Corps program, which supports the commercialization of National Lab innovations through technology transfer.

SLAC researchers developed SPINE, a machine-learning program that reconstructs neutrino interactions from complex detector images. SPINE is currently deployed in neutrino experiments, including the SBN program and DUNE, to help researchers answer questions about neutrinos.

DOE has announced the selection of 12 new Phase II awards and six new Phase I awards through its Genesis Mission, including Fermilab’s AXESS project.

UK scientists and engineers have reached a major production milestone completing half of the 137 giant neutrino sensors, known as Anode Plane Assemblies for DUNE. These giant sensors will detect the tiny electrical signals produced when neutrinos interact with liquid argon inside DUNE’s enormous underground detectors.

Big Picture Science discusses the breakthroughs around the detection of cosmic neutrinos with Kate Shaw, experimental particle physicist at the University of Sussex who works on DUNE.

Wisconsin Public Radio interviewed Francis Halzen on winning the Nobel Prize in Physics and the importance of neutrino research.
