Liquid Argon Test Facility / MicroBooNE Breaks Ground

From the creator

On Jan. 23, 2012, Fermilab broke ground for a one-of-its-kind research facility to develop and operate particle detectors that use liquid-argon technology to explore the mysteries of energy, matter, space and time. The new generation of liquid-argon detectors will allow scientists to observe neutrino interactions with greater precision and resolution than ever before. The MicroBooNE experiment (URL: http://www.fnal.gov/pub/today/archive_2011/today11-09-30_MicroBOONEReadMore.html ), which comprises a 170-ton neutrino detector, will be the first to move into the new facility.
