Members of the international collaboration MINERvA, including University of Rochester researchers, used a particle accelerator at Fermilab—a portion of which is shown in a stylized image above—to create a beam of neutrinos to investigate the structure of protons. The work was part of the MINERvA experiment, a particle physics experiment to study neutrinos.
