From NBC News, May 8, 2018: DUNE co-spokesperson Ed Blucher and Fermilab Director Nigel Lockyer are quoted in NBC’s overview of neutrino physics and DUNE.

From World Nuclear News, April 17, 2018: Energy Secretary Rick Perry and India’s Atomic Energy Secretary Sekhar Basu signed an agreement in New Delhi that opens the way to jointly advancing cutting-edge neutrino science projects under way in both countries, LBNF/DUNE

From NEI Magazine, April 19, 2018: India and the United States have signed an agreement enabling their scientists to collaborate on the development and construction of different types of neutrino detectors, including for LBNF/DUNE.

U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry and India’s Atomic Energy Secretary Sekhar Basu signed an agreement that opens the way for jointly advancing LBNF/DUNE.

From India Today, April 12, 2018: Thanks to a breakthrough at Fermilab’s MiniBooNE experiment scientists can observe muon neutrinos, a particular type of neutrino, with exactly known energy hit at atoms in their particle detector.

The William & Mary professor will help lead the neutrino program into the future.

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.
