DUNE

After joining Fermilab in 2020, Jacopo Bernardini was recently appointed level-3 manager for the 650-MHz cryomodules for the Proton Improvement Plan-II project. PIP-II is building a new, powerful linear accelerator that will create the world’s most intense beam of neutrinos for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. An amateur triathlete outside of work, Bernardini enjoys working with collaborators around the world as well as watching a design become reality.

With a sharp focus on Fermilab’s core scientific mission, Norbert Holtkamp is establishing clear priorities and a disciplined strategy that align the laboratory with the nation’s most ambitious research goals. His leadership is positioning Fermilab for long‑term success.

Researchers at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, working as part of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment collaboration, are perfecting an innovative power-over-fiber system to enable photon detectors to operate reliably in cryogenic, high-voltage conditions.

Physicist Steven Gardiner recently received a Department of Energy Early Career Award to explore the low-energy research potential of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. By applying his unique background in neutron simulations, he aims to leverage the massive detector modules of DUNE to study elusive particles from outer space.

Rice University recently hosted an international workshop focused on integrating cutting-edge AI and ML technologies for the DUNE project led by Fermilab. Rice’s BioScience Research Collaborative collaborators to tackle the monumental computational challenges posed by DUNE and to strategize on leveraging AI’s transformative capabilities within the field of particle physics.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment collaboration announced that a new spokesperson was elected to co-lead the largest neutrino experiment in the U.S. DUNE is at a pivotal time in the development of the massive far detectors and the build-out of the underground space in South Dakota.

During an event at the British Embassy in Washington, D.C., officials honored the successful collaboration between the United States and United Kingdom for building the PIP-II particle accelerator at Fermilab. The powerful new accelerator will be used to send a beam of neutrinos through the Earth for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.

There are many massive neutrino experiments should soon reveal more about the nature of these ghostly particles. DUNE is one of them and it will generate an amazingly intense source of neutrinos using a particle accelerator at Fermilab.

Detector components built at STFC’s Daresbury Laboratory arrived at Fermilab, marking the first direct shipment of these critical components from the UK to the international DUNE experiment, one of the most ambitious particle-physics experiments ever constructed.
