From Physics Today, June 14, 2018: New results from MiniBooNE confirm tantalizing evidence from 20 years ago of an additional neutrino species, but they also fly in the face of findings from other recent experiments.
From NBC News, June 10, 2018: Fermilab scientists have produced the firmest evidence yet of sterile neutrinos, decades after the first evidence of them turned up.
From Ars Technica, June 8, 2018: Fermilab’s latest update on the sterile neutrino uses two additional years of MiniBooNE data. The measurements have edged even closer to the statistical standards for discovery.
From The News Recorder, June 6, 2018: Scientists on Fermilab’s NOvA experiment — the world’s largest-baseline neutrino experiment — have detected strong evidence of muon antineutrinos oscillating into electron antineutrinos. Such phenomenon has never been observed before.
From Scientific American, June 7, 2018: Physicists have caught ghostly particles called neutrinos misbehaving at Fermilab’s MiniBooNE experiment, suggesting an extra species of neutrino exists.
From Physics World, June 7, 2018: The best evidence yet that muon antineutrinos can change into electron antineutrinos has been found by the NOvA experiment.
Some scientists spend decades trying to catch a glimpse of a rare process. But with good experimental design and a lot of luck, they often need only a handful of signals to make a discovery.
From WTTW’s Chicago Tonight, June 5, 2018: A team of physicists announced findings that could reveal the existence of a mysterious new type of particle known as a sterile neutrino. The finding by Fermilab’s MiniBooNE happens to come with several Chicago connections.
From Seeker, June 17, 2018: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment wants to solve one of the biggest mysteries in science today, namely, why do we exist? Fermilab scientist Bonnie Fleming appears in this 6-minute explainer video.
Fermilab’s MINERvA experiment gives a boost to the particle physics field by sharpening a model of a frequent, pesky phenomenon.
