The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) at the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility is an international project that will be the largest particle physics experiment ever built in North America. The DUNE project will use massive liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) to address fundamental questions such as the origin of the matter/antimatter asymmetry in the universe. In order to answer such questions, DUNE will make measurements that probe the nature of neutrino oscillation, the changing of neutrino flavor (electron, muon, or tau) during the flight from source to detector, with unprecedented precision.
