成人头条 State professors Mathew Muether, Holger Meyer, Nick Solomey and graduate student Alan Cedeno are members of the NOvA Collaboration, a group of more than 200 physicists from across the United States and around the world working to understand the nature of a subatomic particle known as the neutrino and what they might reveal about our universe.

WSU is hosting this year's summer NOvA from Sunday, June 11, to Friday, June 16, in Jabara Hall and Hubbard Hall, where members of the collaboration will discuss their latest research efforts.

The NOvA project is based out of Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory and operates a pair of large tracking calorimeters which sit in the world's most powerful neutrino source, the NuMI beam.
