MINERvA: Bringing Neutrinos into Sharp Focus

Completed Tracking Prototype Detector

MINERvA is a neutrino scattering experiment which uses the NuMI beamline at Fermilab.

MINERvA 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.

MINERvA is currently in its second year of construction. Detector modules are being commissioned on the surface in preparation for installation in the neutrino beam. We plan install our first modules in early 2009 and to complete construction of the detector early 2010.
