Fermilab hosted the inaugural DUNE Data Analysis School, organized through the lab’s Neutrino Physics Center. The school brought together early-career researchers for intensive training in the software and analysis tools needed to perform physics analyses for the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. The program marks a major step in preparing the scientific workforce for DUNE and is expected to become a recurring training initiative.

Pandey’s term as co-spokesperson of NuSTEC will focus on advancing higher levels of precision for the next generation of neutrino experiments, including the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, an international collaboration hosted by Fermilab.

Currently, NOvA is Fermilab’s leading long-baseline neutrino experiment. Cremonesi is now co-leading the international collaboration of scientists behind it.

MicroBooNE, with its large neutrino detector at Fermilab, has wrapped up the data-collecting phase and will continue to conduct analysis under fresh leadership.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment’s innovative hybrid near detector will be a game changer. An active prototyping program over the last few years has been refining and validating the design of this smaller detector’s key element, a liquid-argon time projection chamber, and the data analysis tools and methods that go with it.

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.

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.

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.

Distinguished Scientist Fellow Mary Bishai shares her reflections on a career investigating the mysterious particles called neutrinos.
