Description
The Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment (ANNIE) has completed Phase I background measurements and is now progressing towards its Phase II physics measurement. Located in the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB), the experiment has two primary goals: (1) perform a measurement of the production of neutrons from $\nu_{\mu}$ interactions as a function of $Q^2$ to constrain neutrino-nucleus interaction models, and (2) demonstrate the power of new fast-timing, position-sensitive detectors by making the first deployment of Large Area Picosecond PhotoDetectors (LAPPDs) in a physics experiment. LAPPDs are in commercialization and on track to be available on the timescale of the ANNIE physics phase. This poster describes the full physics and R&D programs of ANNIE Phase II, and near term plans for the experiment.
