From UPI, April 9, 2018: For the first time, scientists have precisely measured the interactions between neutrinos hitting the atomic nuclei in the heart of the MiniBooNE neutrino detector. The findings — detailed in the journal Physical Review Letters — remove much of the uncertainty undermining theoretical models of neutrino oscillations and interactions.
In particle physics, the target is the site of particle creation. It’s a straightforward role with complex considerations.
MiniBooNE scientists discover a way to eliminate a major source of uncertainty in subatomic measurements with muon neutrinos.
From SLAC, April 3, 2018: The accomplished particle physicist will prepare the lab for its role in DUNE, a next-generation experiment designed to demystify neutrinos and their fundamental role in the universe.
From the BBC, March 30, 2018: Fermilab Director Nigel Lockyer talks with the BBC about DUNE, the value of neutrino research, the Large Hadron Collider, and the construction of a Higgs factory.
From Rapid City Journal: March 3, 2018: South Dakota Governor Dennis Daugaard touts DUNE and its positive economic effects for the state.
Soldner-Rembold has experience leading a large collaboration and has been working in neutrino physics for more than a decade.
From WDCB Radio, March 4, 2018: Fermilab scientist Jason St. John discusses DUNE in this 12-minute radio interview.
From Northern Public Radio, Feb. 13, 2018: The U.S. House has passed a measure Tuesday sponsored by a northern Illinois Congressman that increases funding at two federal labs in Illinois.
