Starting in June, I start my job working at Fermilab in the particle physics division. The project that I am working on involves constructing scintillation planes for the MINERνA experiment involving the detection of neutrinos.
MINERνA stands for Main Injector Experiment for ν-A. It is basically a neutrino scattering experiment that detects neutrino-nucleus interactions. MINERνA uses the NuMI (Neutrinos at the Main Injector) beamline at Fermilab as their sources of neutrinos.
More information to come!
