Description
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) aims to precisely measure the long baseline neutrino oscillation parameters, for a definitive determination of the neutrino mass ordering and for searching for charge-parity violation in the leptonic sector.
DUNE will utilize the most intense, wide spectrum muon neutrino/anti-neutrino beam, produced at Fermilab, and a 70 kton liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber complex, working as Far Detector. The far detector will be located at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in South Dakota, at 1300 km from the proton beam target.
To reduce the systematics dominated by the flux and cross-section uncertainties, a Near Detector complex made by three detectors, two of these movable off-axis, will be installed at Fermilab.
In this talk, I will briefly describe the DUNE physics program, the current design and technology, and the expected sensitivity on neutrino oscillation measurements.
