COLLOQUIUM "Liquid Argon Detector Physics with ProtoDUNEs at CERN" by Richard Diurba (University of Bern)

Friday 14 Jun 2024, 11:00 → 12:00 Europe/Amsterdam

Colloquium Room (Nikhef Vertex)

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an upcoming neutrino oscillation experiment. It will use 17-kiloton liquid argon time projection chambers at the far site. To develop technologies for these modules, DUNE has constructed and operated Far Detector prototypes at CERN in a program referred to as ProtoDUNE. The first full-scale detector, ProtoDUNE Single-Phase, took data from 2018 and 2020 and showed that the technical specifications of the Far Detector are achievable. The talk will discuss detector physics results from ProtoDUNE Single-Phase. It will also include discussions on the DUNE physics program and look at the future of prototyping efforts at CERN.
