Current Activities

MiniBooNE - Booster Neutrino Oscillation Experiment at Fermilab nm &rarr ne neutrino oscillation experiment using muon neutrinos produced with the 8 GeV booster. Experiment will make a definitive test of the LSND observation at Los Alamos http://www-boone.fnal.gov/ Movie about Neutrinos and MiniBooNE ABC News Neutrino Mass Movie Clip MiniBooNE Horn Concerto Movie of MiniBooNE Event (A Stopping Muon with Decay Electron after ~2 microsec)
Double Chooz Reactor Neutrino Experiment Using electron antineutrinos from the Chooz nuclear reactor in northern France, this experiment will explore neutrino oscillations involving the unknown mixing angle, q13. Measurement of this mixing angle is crucial for taking the next step in neutrino oscillations physics and for trying to understand the masses, mixings and possible CP violation effects. http://doublechooz.in2p3.fr/
NuTeV - Neutrino Experiment at the TeVatron Experiment to study the neutrino interactions using a high-energy sign-selected beam Goals: - Measure weak mixing angle with precision comparable to collider experiments - Determine the quark structure of the nucleon (protons and neutrons) - Search for long-lived neutral heavy particles http://www-e815.fnal.gov/NuTeV.html Press Release for NuTeV Weak Mixing Angle Result Columbia News: Breakthrough at Fermilab in Research on Neutrinos
