Main Injector Experiment for ν-A, or MINERνA, is a neutrino scattering experiment which uses the NuMI beamline at Fermilab.MINERνA seeks to measure low energy neutrino interactions both in support of neutrino oscillation experiments and also to study the strong dynamics of the nucleon and nucleus that affect these interactions.
Neutrinos at the Main Injector, or NuMI, is a project at Fermilab which creates an intense beam of neutrinos aimed towards the Far Detector facility near Ash River, Minnesota for use by several particle detectors. [1] As of June 2010, the MINOS, MINERνA and NOνA experiments use the NuMI beam. [2] [3]
Davisson–Germer experiment; Gold foil experiments, performed by Geiger and Marsden for Rutherford which discovered the atomic nucleus; Elucidation of the structure of DNA by X-ray crystallography; Discovery of the antiproton at the Bevatron; Discovery of W and Z bosons at CERN; Discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider; MINERνA
This is a list of past and current experiments at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) facility since its commissioning in 1976. [1] The SPS was used as the main particle collider for many experiments, and has been adapted to various purpose ever since its inception.
If Thomson was correct, the beam would go through the gold foil with very small deflections. In the experiment most of the beam passed through the foil, but a few were deflected. [6] In a May 1911 paper, [7] Rutherford presented his own physical model for subatomic structure, as an interpretation for the unexpected experimental results. [2]
Yet there was scattering, so Rutherford and his colleagues decided to investigate this scattering carefully. [55] Between 1908 and 1913, Rutherford and his colleagues performed a series of experiments in which they bombarded thin foils of metal with a beam of alpha particles. They spotted alpha particles being deflected by angles greater than 90°.
Installation of the Gargamelle chamber body. Placement of the chamber in the oblong shaped magnet coils. The domain of neutrino physics was in rapid expansion in the 60's. . Neutrino experiments using bubble chambers were already running at the first synchrotron at CERN, the PS, and the question of the next generation of bubble chambers had been on the agenda for some ti
A Feynman diagram (box diagram) for photon–photon scattering: one photon scatters from the transient vacuum charge fluctuations of the other. Two-photon physics, also called gamma–gamma physics, is a branch of particle physics that describes the interactions between two photons. Normally, beams of light pass through each other unperturbed.
