Description
NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment based at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, USA. Utilizing two functionally-identical liquid scintillator tracking calorimeters placed 810 km apart, NOvA observes the appearance of electron (anti)neutrinos and the disappearance of muon (anti)neutrinos in the muon (anti)neutrino-dominated NuMI beam. By observing these (anti)neutrino oscillations, NOvA is probing several key questions in physics of neutrino oscillations including the neutrino mass ordering, leptonic CP violation phase 𝛿𝐶𝑃, the larger neutrino mass splitting Δ𝑚232, and the mixing angle 𝜃23. The most recent three-flavor neutrino oscillation results from NOvA will be presented.
