The internship gives upper-level university students hands-on experience in accelerator science & technology while working with experts in the field.
The goal is to search for a rare type of nuclear decay called neutrinoless double beta decay, a process where a nucleus decays into another one.
During charge-discharge cycling, zinc tends to grow as spiky crystals or dendrites, which can cause a short-circuit when charging the batteries.
A neutrino detection system built for the Short-Baseline Near Detector traveled 3 miles to its final home in the SBND detector hall.

The Frontier supercomputer at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory earned the top ranking on May 30, 2022, as the world’s fastest on the 59th TOP500 list, with 1.1 exaflops of performance. The system is the first to achieve an unprecedented level of computing performance known as exascale, a threshold of a quintillion calculations per second.
