Bjorn Scholz (left) from the University of Chicago and Grayson Rich of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory show off the world's smallest neutrino detector. Its siting at the Spallation Neutron Source's high-flux neutrino source was the key to the COHERENT experiment's success.
