SBND Construction

Check out this cool tweet from @FNALNeutrinos highlighting the work of Monica Nunes, and colleagues, in building the SBND TPC at Fermilab!

Cool Story

Check out this interesting story from Fermilab, highlighting a new paper from Steven Gardiner of Fermilab about the MARLEY program and its potential applications for supernova neutrino studies.  The story highlights recents low-energy LArTPC reconstruction tools developed first on ArgoNeuT, then on MicroBooNE by our own Avinay Bhat!  Let’s hope we get lucky and have DUNE up and running when the next galactic supernova burst passes our way 😉

Monica elected to Fermilab UEC

Postdoctoral researcher Monica Nunes was recently elected to the Fermilab Users Executive Committee (UEC), which is a group that helps look after quality of life at the lab, organizes the annual Users Meeting, and makes an annual trip to Washington D.C. to advocate for particle physics research funding.  She’s in good company, as former Syracuse postdoc Jonathan Asaadi is also on the current UEC.  Congratulations Monica!
