Neutrino MasterClass

During our Spring Break, we hosted a group of students, and their Physics teachers, from Fayetteville-Manlius high-school as part of our involvement in the Quarknet program.  They spent the day learning about neutrinos and analyzing data from the MINERvA experiment.   It was a lot of fun!

SBND APA Delivery

The long journey of the U.S.-made SBND APAs reaches a milestone.  Delivery of both APAs to Fermilab (along with the field-cage modules made by our Yale colleagues).  Now TPC construction can proceed full-speed ahead.  See some photos of the truck arriving, and Pip and company supervising the unloading.

Starting off 2019 in the spotlight

Check out the Syracuse University homepage, which currently features Pip and Avinay in action working on the SBND APAs!  There is an accompanying story about this project.  Since the page will eventually move on to something else, here’s a screenshot  to capture the moment.  Happy New Year!

Second SBND APA Complete!

The wiring team has finished the 2nd US-made SBND APA!  See a time-lapse video below.  We are now working on packing everything, and everyone, up and moving things to Fermilab for detector construction.   We are extremely appreciative of everyone at Wright Lab who has contributed to this project and helped us along the way.
