RUI: Search for Neutrino Oscillations with High Sensitivity

将对中微子的性质进行研究，特别是类Muon和类电子中微子与反中微子之间的振荡，这是由于它们具有不同的质量，尽管质量很小而发生的。LAMPF实验室正在建造的一个大型探测器将与LAMPF束挡一起用作Muon中微子的来源。将对质量差异设定新的限制，从而提供关于这些基本粒子的基本信息，并便于与直接观测太阳中微子得出的质量差异进行比较。PI和本科生将对数据采集系统的硬件和软件进行各种元素的开发。

Research will be carried out on the properties of neutrinos, specifically the oscillation between muon- and electron-like neutrinos and anti-neutrinos, which occurs by virtue of their having different, albeit very small masses. A large detector being built at the LAMPF laboratory will be used in conjunction with the LAMPF beam stop as a source of muon neutrinos. New limits on the mass difference will be set, thus providing basic information on these fundamental particles, and facilitating comparison with mass differences inferred from direct observation of solar neutrinos. The PI and undergraduate students will carry out development of various elements of the data acquisition system, both hardware and software.
