'''Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE)''' is a leading-edge physics experiment designed to study neutrinos, one of the most elusive particles in the universe. By constructing massive liquid argon time projection chambers deep underground, DUNE aims to detect neutrinos from various sources, including those produced by cosmic events, to unravel mysteries about neutrino properties, matter-antimatter asymmetry, and the physics of the early universe.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.dunescience.org |title=Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment |accessdate=January 30, 2025}}</ref> | '''Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE)''' is a leading-edge physics experiment designed to study neutrinos, one of the most elusive particles in the universe.

DUNE is managed by the Office of High Energy Physics within the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. It's a collaborative effort primarily between Fermilab in the U.S. and CERN in Europe, with international contributions from over 30 countries. The project is overseen by a co-spokesperson system, with significant involvement from DOE labs, universities, and funding from multiple agencies. | DUNE is managed by the Office of High Energy Physics within the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science.
