Observation of Electron Neutrino Appearance in the NuMI Beam with the NOvA Experiment
NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment that uses two functionally identical detectors separated by 810 kilometers at locations 14 milliradians o -axis from the NuMI muon neutrino beam at Fermilab. At these locations the beam energy peaks at 2 GeV. This baseline is the longest in …

Constraining Beam Backgrounds and Analyzing the Detector Response in a Test Beam With the Nova Experiment
<p>NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment with two functionallyidentical detectors with the Near Detector at Fermilab, Illinois, and the Far Detector at Ash River, Minnesota. NOvA measures the rate of muon neutrino disappearance and electron neutrino appearance using muon neutrinos …

An analysis of noise in the NOvA near detector
The NOvA (NuMI Off-axis νe Appearance) long-baseline neutrino experiment utilizes neutrino oscillations to gain insight into the unanswered questions in neutrino physics and further our knowledge of particle physics. The answers can only be arrived at through precise and accurate measurements of …

Muon Energy Reconstruction Through the Multiple Scattering Method in the NOvA Detectors
… measurements are a crucial component in the experimental study of neutrino oscillations. These measurements are done through the reconstruction of neutrino interactions and energy measurements of their products. This thesis presents the development of a technique to reconstruct the energy of …

A study of the feasibility of detecting primordial microscopic black hole remnants with the NOvA far detector
… such as the NuMI Off-Axis νe Appearance (NOvA) experiment and the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). The origin, stability, properties, and energy loss mechanism of such objects are examined. The signals produced from the detectors should allow for discrimination between these …
