The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is the next-generation long-baseline experiment aimed at measuring Charge-Parity Violation (CPV) in the neutrino sector along with unambiguously resolving the neutrino mass hierarchy. In addition, DUNE can also search for physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM), nucleon decay, supernova and solar neutrinos. DUNE will consist of a near detector at...
The closer accelerator-based experiments get to the burning regime of interest for stellar nucleosynthesis, the lower the reaction probability becomes. With this exponential drop off in cross-section the issue of background interference in signals becomes more problematic even with modern detection techniques. Aboveground experiments suffer from background interactions from cosmic ray...
Demand for plasmid DNA has increased tremendously with growth in cell and gene therapies and surged following the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Scaling up manufacturing capacity for production of high-quality plasmid DNA to meet demand will require automated solutions using industrial automation components that are more durable, dynamic, and powerful than lab instruments. This plasmid...
