At the NEUTRINO 2024 conference in Milan, Italy, the NOvA (NuMI Off-axis ν_e Appearance) collaboration presented results corresponding to a doubling of statistics since their previous significant result release four years ago. The latest results show a preference for the normal-ordered mass hierarchy, with a 7:1 favoring of the normal hierarchy over the inverted hierarchy. The NOvA result, combined with measurements from other neutrino experiments, provides new insight into the nature of neutrinos, as well as valuable input into future neutrino experiments, like the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). Professor Norm Buchanan’s group has been part of the NOvA collaboration since 2015. Former postdoctoral fellows from Buchanan’s group (Steven Calvez and Micah Groh) and a former graduate student (Derek Doyle) made significant contributions to the computational techniques used in this analysis.
