US physicists call for underground neutrino facility
When the US National Science Board nixed US plans for an underground lab in 2010, multiple potential experiments were left homeless and the US physics community in a kerfuffle. Now forty leading theoretical physicists, including three Nobel Prize winners, have written to the US Department of Energy (DOE) urging it build an underground facility to study subatomic neutrinos that would compensate to some degree for the lab’s absence.
