The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment is an international collaboration of scientists and engineers working to explore the mysteries of neutrinos, the most abundant particles in the universe. The experiment is located in the Homestake Mine in South Dakota, USA, and involves the construction of a massive detector
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a neutrino experiment under construction in the United States, with a near detector at Fermilab, Illinois, and a far detector at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF), South Dakota, that will observe neutrinos produced at Fermilab. An intense beam of trillions of neutrinos from the production facility at Fermilab will be sent over a distance of 1,300 kilometers (810 mi), with the goal of understanding the role of neutrinos in the universe. More than 1,000 collaborators are involved in the project. The experiment is designed for a 20-year period of data collection.
