Description
NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino experiment based at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, USA. Utilizing two functionally-identical tracking calorimeters placed 809 km apart, NOvA observes the appearance of electron (anti)neutrinos and the disappearance of muon (anti)neutrinos in the muon (anti)neutrino-dominated NuMI beam. By observing these neutrino oscillations along with their antineutrino counterparts, NOvA is probing outstanding questions in neutrino physics including the neutrino mass ordering, leptonic CP violation parameterized by the phase $\delta_{CP}$, the larger neutrino mass splitting $\Delta m^{2}_{32}$, and the mixing angle $\theta_{23}$. Here, we present the most recent 3-flavor neutrino oscillation results from NOvA, which include about 50% more neutrino-mode data, improved reconstruction algorithms, and a new simulation.
