abstract

The NOvA long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment is currently under construction and will use an upgraded NuMI neutrino source at Fermilab and a 14-kton detector at Ash River, Minnesota to explore the neutrino sector. NOvA uses a highly active, finely segmented detector design that offers superb event identification capability, allowing precision measurements of \nu_e/\nu_e-bar appearance and \nu_\mu/\nu_\mu-bar disappearance, through which NOvA will provide constraints on \theta_13, \theta_23, |\Delta m^2_atm|, the neutrino mass hierarchy, and the CP-violating phase \delta. In this article, we review NOvA's uniquely broad physics scope, including sensitivity updates in light of the latest knowledge of \theta_13, and we discuss the experiment's construction and operation timeline.
