BooNE Has Begun

TL;DR

The BooNE experiment at Fermilab has started collecting data to investigate neutrino oscillations, aiming to confirm previous signals reported by another detector, with data collection beginning in August 2002.

Contribution

First data collection for the BooNE experiment to test neutrino oscillation signals reported earlier.

Findings

Data collection has commenced at Fermilab.

The experiment aims to verify previous neutrino oscillation signals.

Initial results are expected in future publications.

Abstract

E898, the MiniBooNE experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, has begun data collection. The experiment will test the neutrino oscillation signal reported by the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Data collection began in late August 2002.
