Description
NOvA is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, USA. It is one of the so-called "off-beam-axis" experiments with two highly active detectors separated by 810 km of Earth's crust. Both detectors are identical and consist of PVC cells filled with a liquid scintillator. The NOvA collaboration has already published its first results for muon neutrino disappearance [1] and electron neutrino appearance [2] mode with data collected between July 2013 and March 2015. This talk is devoted to a discussion on NOvA's first results
