Scientists advance their vision for a muon collider
Physicists are exploring the development of a muon collider — an advanced particle accelerator that could reveal new insights into the nature of our universe. Though great challenges exist in studying fast-decaying muons, technological advancements in accelerators, magnets and detectors could make building the collider a reality. Recent workshops hosted by Fermilab brought together researchers from around the globe to address some of these challenges.

Scientists in a race to discover why our Universe exists
The BBC covers how the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will study the change in neutrinos and anti-neutrinos as they travel 800-miles from Fermilab in Illinois to SURF in South Dakota.
Crews start outfitting LBNF caverns for DUNE experiment
SDPB speaks with the science director at SURF about the outfitting massive underground caverns at SURF.
The caverns are currently having utilities, like fire suppression and duct work installed and will host cryostats for DUNE’s far detectors.
SURF to lower beams for DUNE cryostats starting next year
Crews with the Sanford Underground Research Facility will undergo the careful process of lowering about 380 steel beams a mile underground soon. Each beam weighs about 12,800 pounds.
Researchers at Fermilab and Northwestern advance 3D printing for high-temperature superconductors
Researchers at Northwestern University, with support from Fermilab have developed a groundbreaking method for 3D printing high-temperature superconductors. The research marks the first time ceramic superconductors have been 3D printed with a monocrystalline microstructure.
