The research space, more than 500 feet long and about seven stories tall, will house one of the experiment’s massive detector modules. Credit: Aaron Thompson, Fermilab

Momentum builds for world-leading neutrino experiment hosted by Fermilab

Construction of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility is entering its next phase, marking a major step forward for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment hosted by Fermilab. With the arrival of critical components and growing momentum across partner institutions, DUNE is moving closer to unlocking long standing mysteries in particle physics and the origins of the universe.

Neutrino Day 2026

    Each year for Neutrino Day, SDPB hosts a special live broadcast a mile underground. This year, SDPB spoke with Mike Headley, SURF laboratory director, Dr. Sowjanya Gollapinni, senior scientist for Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and others about DUNE and Neutrino Day events in Lead, SD.

    Fermilab’s Neutrino Physics Center hosts inaugural DUNE Data Analysis School

    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.
