| PI Contribution | We have provided a detector to be used at Fermilab in their test beam facility, facilitated by this STFC grant as well as money from a UKRI future leaders fellowship an STFC PRD grant and other funding from a Royal Society Research grant |
| Collaborator Contribution | Fermilab provided time in their particle accelerator beam to test this detector |
| Impact | We are testing a detector for the future DUNE experiment |
| Start Year | 2019 |
