The Standard Model is far more than elementary particles arranged in a table.

From Gizmodo, July 26, 2016: Ever wanted to build a particle accelerator in your basement? Well if one University of Liverpool PhD student gets his way, you may soon be able to do that – with LEGO.

From Physics, July 26, 2016: A team at MIT analyzes data from Fermilab’s MINOS neutrino experiment. The results rule out a class of realist models in which the evolving system does not depend on any “memory” of its initial state.

The first website to be hosted in the U.S. has grown to be an invaluable hub for open science.

From CERN Courier, July 8, 2016: Established in 2013 following recommendations from the European Strategy document, the CERN Neutrino Platform ensures Europe’s participation in next-generation long- and short-baseline neutrino experiments in Japan and the United States

From Motherboard, July 20, 2016: A team of MIT physicists has observed quantum correlations extending 456 miles from Fermilab’s MINOS experiment near Chicago to an underground detector in Minnesota.

More than 1,350 physicists from around the world will converge in Chicago for the biennial ICHEP conference in August to share new research results, announce new projects, and talk about the most intriguing mysteries of the universe.

At Fermilab and CERN, students, lab employees and visitors alike are on the hunt for virtual creatures.

From Science, July 12, 2016: Data from the MINOS neutrino experiment show that the elusive subatomic particles must literally be of two mutually exclusive types at once—poking a hole in our intuitive sense of reality.

From CERN Courier, July 8, 2016: Caltech’s Ryan Patterson and Fermilab’s Peter Shanahan report on new measurements of neutrino oscillations at NOvA.
