NOvA
- Thomas Wester (University of Chicago)
NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment consisting of two functionally identical liquid scintillator detectors placed 809 km apart. NOvA’s main goal is to search for muon (anti)neutrino disappearance and electron (anti)neutrino appearance from the NuMI beam in order to measure neutrino mixing parameters, determine the neutrino mass hierarchy, and search for CP violation in...
Predicted by the Standard Model as theoretical, massless particles, neutrinos have been the subject of many experiments since their first detection. It is now experimentally confirmed that neutrinos do have mass necessitating an extension to the Standard Model. Such an extension allows for other surprising neutrino properties, such as a neutrino magnetic moment, $\nu$MM. While neutrinos are...
NOvA, is a two-detector, long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment located at Fermilab, Batavia, IL, USA. It is designed primarily to constrain neutrino oscillation parameters such as the atmospheric mass squared splitting, $\Delta m^2_{32}$, the mixing angle, $\theta_{23}$, neutrino mass hierachy, and the CP-violating phase, $\delta_{CP}$, using $\nu_\mu \ (\bar{\nu}_\mu)$ disappearance...
