SUMMARY:The MicroBooNE and ArgoNeuT Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamb
 ers\, NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Jonathan Asaadi\, Sy
 racuse
DESCRIPTION:TBLiquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC's) provide
  an extraordinary level of information about the interactions of neutr
 inos. Amongst the several different efforts ongoing at Fermi National 
 Accelerator Laboratory to develop the liquid argon detector technology
  and utilize it to study neutrino interactions are the MicroBooNE and 
 ArgoNeuT experiments. The MicroBooNE experiment is a 170 ton total mas
 s LArTPC. MicroBooNE will be deployed in the Booster neutrino beam at 
 Fermilab and is scheduled to start taking data in early 2014. The Argo
 NeuT experiment deployed a relatively small 0.7 ton total mass LArTPC 
 in the NuMI neutrino beamline at Fermilab\, running from September 200
 9 to February 2010. The data collected is now being analyzed and used 
 to measure neutrino interaction cross-sections. This talk will present
  an overview of LArTPC's\, the current status of the assembly\, instal
 lation\, and operational readiness of the MicroBooNE detector\, as wel
 l as ongoing analysis from ArgoNeuT data including a look at neutral c
 urrent pi0 interactions from the NuMI beam.
