Welcome to the Muon1 Neutrino Factory --
Project DPAD (Distributed Particle Accelerator Design)
Free-DC Team Stats http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/teamstats.php#Free-DC
The experiment is called the Neutrino Factory, scheduled for construction some time around 2015. Its primary aim is to fire beams of neutrinos (fundamental particles) through the Earth's interior to detector stations on different continents. They're doing this to measure whether they change type en route (there are 3 types of neutrino) and data from this in turn will allow them to determine the neutrino's mass (and whether it even has mass).
