neutrinos

The New York Times reports on LBNF/DUNE. When DUNE operations begin, the research results could a major gap in scientists’ understanding of the universe and return the United States to its former position at the center of particle physics.

Alex Himmel, a scientist at Fermilab, provided a quote on quantum dot liquid scintillators.

How I spent my summer learning about enigmatic particles that pass right through me by the billions every second!

Neutrinos were first detected by Los Alamos researchers in 1956 and today very little is known about these elusive particles. Today, Los Alamos is part of the international collaboration of DUNE which aims to launch the most intense neutrino beam in the world.

Xiao Luo, a professor at UC Santa Barbara, was acknowledged by the Sloan Foundation for her work on MicroBooNE, the Short Baseline Near Detector and DUNE.

Neutrino Day attracted thousands of people from throughout the country to participate in Lead’s annual science festival.
