DUNE by the numbers (large format)

In its quest to understand why matter exists, the flagship neutrino experiment hosted by Fermilab is constructing an enormous next-generation liquid-argon-based detector a mile underground. The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment is building on the successes of previous liquid-argon experiments, promising measurements of unprecedented precision over a wide range of energies that will bring significant new insights into the nature of the universe.

In addition to revealing characteristics of mysterious particles called neutrinos, the massive DUNE experiment could help astronomers find a supernova right as it begins.

The Short-Baseline Near Detector has logged the largest sample of neutrino interactions in liquid argon in the world. Newly elected, Andrzej Szelc will co-lead SBND during the next phase of the experiment.
