The Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) is an upgrade of the Fermilab accelerator complex, that generates the world’s most intense neutrino beam travelling 1300 km from Illinois to the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) in South Dakota. DUNE scientists will use neutrinos to answer some of the most profound questions about our universe. In addition, the high-power proton beams sourced by PIP-II will enable muon-based experiments to search for new particles and forces at unprecedented levels of precision and a diverse physics program powering new discoveries for decades to come.

Delivery: North West · Warrington
Extensions: A third set of the Magnetic Shield, at an additional £300,000.00 Excluding VAT, may be purchased if UKRI decide to purchase. Please note, these are options and are not guaranteed.Variant bids: not allowed
