On the Path to Building the Largest Monolithic Liquid Argon Neutrino Detector, DUNE

Dr. Christopher Macias, University of Iowa

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) will be a world-class neutrino observatory and nucleon decay detector designed to answer fundamental questions about elementary particles and their role in the universe. I will be discussing some of the R&D being done in order to build the largest monolithic liquid argon neutrino detector, DUNE; as well as ProtoDUNE-SP's successful operation and its production of large samples of high-quality data, demonstrating the effectiveness of the single-phase far detector design.
