    Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) can induce defects in crystal lattices that persist over long time scales. In certain materials, electrons can become trapped in these defects, turning them optically active (i.e. color centers). This enables neutrino-induced nuclear recoils to be imaged using fluorescence microscopy. We present commissioning data from the Virginia Tech...

    The Standard Model of particle physics posits the existence of three distinct neutrino flavors. Several anomalous observations inconsistent with the three flavor Standard Model neutrino oscillations have motivated the hypothesis that there exists at least one additional neutrino state, termed the ‘sterile neutrino’ that does not interact directly with matter. Among these anomalies, LSND and...

    The Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program at Fermilab is searching for neutrino oscillations over a short baseline as a signature of a sterile neutrino with a mass splitting of about 1eV2.

    High-energy cosmic rays enter Earth's atmosphere where they interact with atmospheric particles to generate charged mesons that subsequently decay into muons. As the atmosphere warms, the density decreases, increasing the mean free path of pions and kaons and therefore the probability that they decay into cosmic ray muons before undergoing a secondary interaction. This leads to a measurable...
