Description

NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment based at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, USA. Utilizing two functionally-identical liquid scintillator tracking calorimeters placed 810 km apart, NOvA observes the appearance of electron (anti)neutrinos and the disappearance of muon (anti)neutrinos in the muon (anti)neutrino-dominated NuMI beam. By observing these (anti)neutrino oscillations, NOvA is probing several key questions in the physics of neutrino oscillations including the neutrino mass ordering, leptonic CP violation phase $\delta_{CP}$, the larger neutrino mass splitting $\Delta m^2_{32}$, and the mixing angle $\theta_{23}$. Up-to-date neutrino oscillation results from NOvA will be presented.
