Double Chooz

Situated near the Chooz Nuclear Power Plant in France, the Double Chooz experiment goal is to search for a non-vanishing value of the θ13 neutrino mixing angle. This is the last step to accomplish prior moving towards a new era of precision measurements in the lepton sector. J. Conrad, L. Winslow

MicroBooNE

The MicroBooNE experiment will build and operate a large, approximately 100-ton, liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) located along the Booster neutrino beam line. The experiment will measure low energy neutrino cross sections, and investigate the low energy excess events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment. J. Conrad, B. Jones, C. Ignarra
