    DUNE and T2K gear up for next stage

    DUNE and T2K gear up for next stage In the middle of the LHC ring, at the CERN Prevessin site, lies an experimental facility dedicated to particles that are but missing momentum to the four major LHC experiments. The Neutrino Platform, built as an extension of the SPS test beam area, hosts the R&D activities

    ProtoDUNE sees first particle tracks Introduction The CERN Neutrino Platform was installed in 2014 following the recommendation of the European Strategy Group for CERN to engage in the worldwide experimental neutrino program. The platform engaged from the start in the future Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) in the US, which plans for its far detector
