On March 14, 2012, MINER\u03bdA submitted a preprint demonstrating communication using neutrinos. Though not a part of the experiment\u2019s physics program, this is the first reported instance of a message being transmitted by neutrinos. Scientists used ASCII code to represent the word \u201cneutrino\u201d as a series of 1s and 0s. Over a period of 6 minutes, this sequence was delivered by either the presence or absence of a neutrino pulse, over a distance of about a kilometer.<\/p>\n

Underside of the front of the MINER\u03bdA neutrino detector in 2011. The names of experiment contributors are handwritten on the front of the detector. Main Injector Experiment for \u0192\u00cb-A, or MINER\u03bdA, is a neutrino scattering experiment which uses the NuMI beamline at Fermilab. MINER\u03bdA seeks to measure low energy neutrino interactions both in support of neutrino oscillation experiments and also to study the strong dynamics of the nucleon and nucleus that affect these interactions.<\/p>\n
