Event description: 

“Neutrino Physics with LArTPCs”

Neutrinos hold the key to many unanswered questions in today’s Standard Model. Experiments probing the oscillation pattern of the known three neutrinos at different energies and baselines are aiming to determine fundamental characteristics such as the mass ordering of neutrinos, the CP violating phase, and the number of neutrino flavors. 
The use of liquid-Argon Time Projection Chambers for neutrino detection enabled a new level of precision in imaging neutrino interactions. In this talk I’ll discuss the status and opportunities for the short-baseline neutrino experiments SBND, MicroBooNE and ICARUS, and future long-baseline neutrino experiment DUNE.
