Abstract
The NOvA long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment is currently under construction and will use an upgraded NuMI neutrino source at Fermilab and a 14-kton detector at Ash River, Minnesota to explore the neutrino sector. NOvA uses a highly active, finely segmented detector design that offers superb event identification capability, allowing precision measurements of appearance and disappearance, through which NOvA will provide constraints on θ13, θ23, , the neutrino mass hierarchy, and the CP-violating phase δ. In this article, we review NOvAʼs uniquely broad physics scope, including sensitivity updates in light of the latest knowledge of θ13, and we discuss the experimentʼs construction and operation timeline.
