Did you know that imaging scanners at the hospital next door could be running the same operating system as Fermilab’s particle accelerators and experiments?
Years of work upgrading the accelerator have made it possible to achieve the high beam power needed to produce neutrinos — the most elusive of nature’s known particles — by the truckload.
Ellen Sandor, Fermilab’s 2016 artist-in-residence, shines a new light on Fermilab’s neutrino research with her current exhibit at the Fermilab Art Gallery.
Technicians, engineers and scientists have draped the MicroBooNE detector at Fermilab in a shiny new exterior that helps scientists separate cosmic ray signals from neutrino signals.
