History of Long-Baseline Accelerator Neutrino Experiments

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2019-01-29 v1 Instrumentation and Detectors

Abstract

I will discuss the six previous and present long-baseline neutrino experiments: two first-generation general experiments, K2K and MINOS, two specialized experiments, OPERA and ICARUS, and two second-generation general experiments, T2K and NOvA. The motivations for and goals of each experiment, the reasons for the choices that each experiment made, and the outcomes will be discussed.
