SUMMARY:NEUTRINO SEMINAR: MicroBooNE – A Neutrino Camera
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Anne Schukraft\, Fermilab\n\nPart of the Departmental
	 Seminars.\n\nNeutrinos are among the most abundant particles in the Univer
	se\, but also among the most mysterious. Measuring and understanding their 
	properties has the potential to uncover physics beyond the standard model o
	f particle physics and neutrinos could be the key to a new understanding of
	 the subatomic world.\n\nThis talk will discuss a recent newcomer to the ne
	utrino scene\, MicroBooNE. The MicroBooNE detector is a liquid argon time p
	rojection chamber\, designed to observe neutrinos from the Fermilab Booster
	 Neutrino Beam with bubble-chamber-like image quality. Its main physics goa
	ls are the search for a fourth type of neutrino and the study of interactio
	ns of neutrinos with matter. At the same time\, it is a prototype detector 
	for a very large future long-baseline neutrino detector in the U.S. of the 
	same technology that will answer some of the most pressing questions about 
	neutrinos.
