Research Progress Meeting
Date: October 28, 2025

Title: Development of the DUNE Near Detector
Abstract: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an ambitious effort to measure neutrino properties via long-distance (1300 km) flavor oscillation of accelerator-generated neutrinos and antineutrinos. I will review the scientific challenges of this measurement, the details of neutrino detection using immense liquid argon time-projection chambers, and the crucial role of the DUNE Near Detector. I will highlight the role Berkeley Lab has played in development of the key technology and design of the Near Detector, as well as experiences from operation of a large-scale prototype in a beam of antineutrinos.
