The upcoming Short-Baseline Near Detector at Fermilab continues scientists’ search for evidence of a hypothetical particle, the sterile neutrino. Collaborators around the world are participating in the detector’s construction. Its first critical components recently arrived from partner institutions. When complete, SBND will be the third and final detector in Fermilab’s Short-Baseline Neutrino Program.
From Forbes, Dec. 5, 2018: If there’s a fourth neutrino out there, Fermilab’s Short-Baseline Neutrino Program experiments will lead the way.
We already know neutrinos break the mold of the Standard Model. The question is: By how much?
This neutrino-watchers season preview will give you the rundown on what to expect to come out of neutrino research in the coming years.
Fermilab’s Short-Baseline Neutrino program buildings, which translate the requirements of neutrino experiments into architecture, win ALA Gold Award.
On April 27, Fermilab broke ground on the building that will house the future Short-Baseline Near Detector. The particle detector is one of three that, together, Fermilab scientists and collaborators will use to search for the sterile neutrino.
