Postdoc Clarence Wret and Professor Kevin McFarland have been collaborating with colleagues from Fermilab, Los Alamos, and the University of Kentucky to study the effects of electromagnetic radiative corrections on…

Aaron Bercellie completed and defended his thesis, “Muon Neutrino Charged Current Single Pion Production on Various Targets in the MINERvA Detector” in April 2022. The paper describing his results is…

The ICARUS experiment, currently in commissioning, has observed electron neutrino candidates from the NuMI beamline. Graduate student Ryan Howell found this candidate event while scanning data. A projection roughly transverse…

Dr. Tejin Cai successfully defended his thesis which provides the first precise measurement of the nucleon axial form factor without nuclear effects from his measurement of anti neutrino scattering on…

Masatoshi Koshiba (1955 Ph.D., University of Rochester), who received the Nobel Prize in 2002 for the observation of neutrinos from SuperNova 1987a, passed away this week. We owe him so…

Rob successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis, “Measurement of the Medium Energy NuMI Flux Using the Low-ν and High-ν Methods at MINERvA” today. Rumor has it that a bottle of champagne…

Dr. Dan Ruterbories has been awarded a Cottrell Fellowship from the Research Corporation for Scientific Advancement recognizing his work on MINERvA. Dan serves as MINERvA’s analysis coordinator, and studies quasielastic…

Tejin Cai has been selected as an Agnes M. and George Messersmith Fellow. This award will support his final year of his Ph.D. dissertation work at Rochester. Tejin was selected…

Building on ideas from previous work by PhD student Tejin Cai and Professor Arie Bodek, and experimental techniques from Postdoctoral fellow Dan Ruterbories, Tejin has shown that transverse kinematic imbalance…

The T2K experiment’s new results made the cover of Nature. We knocked bad news about COVID-19 from the cover story. Our new results show a preference for nearly maximal differences…
