The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $480,000 Project Grant to the Trustees of Boston University to support research on the fundamental nature of neutrinos. Through this grant under the NSF Division of Physics' Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the university will implement major enhancements to the world-leading KamLAND-Zen neutrino detection experiment to search for evidence of neutrinos being their own antiparticles, a hypothetical property known as...
This $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports particle astrophysics research at the Hyper-Kamiokande neutrino observatory in Japan. The primary objectives are to optimize the triggering, calibration, and reconstruction of neutrino interactions, particularly at low energies, to enable Hyper-Kamiokande to measure neutrino oscillations from atmospheric, solar, and cosmic neutrino sources. This research aims...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics Project Grant award to the University of Utah, with a total funding of $100,000.00, supports collaborative research focused on particle astrophysics with the Hyper-Kamiokande detector in Hida City, Japan. The Hyper-Kamiokande detector is a large underground water tank that uses photosensors to detect neutrinos, elementary particles, from a variety of natural and man-made sources. This project aims to optimize the detector's triggering,...
