A UK consortium has partnered with Fermilab to construct a 100-meter-long quantum experiment, MAGIS-100. The experiment is under construction at Fermilab and will help scientists demonstrate the superposition of atoms and advance the search for ultralight dark-matter particles.

Researchers at Fermilab have demonstrated that particle accelerator technology can be used to destroy chemicals known as PFAS, which cannot be broken down effectively by other known methods.

The Patch follows up on the Jan. 23 announcement that Wilson Hall is open to the public.

The P5 panel’s recent recommendation of “our muon shot”, states that a muon accelerator program would fit with the U.S.’s ambition to host a major international collider facility. With the development, it would probe an understanding of the fundamental nature of the universe and offer substantial benefits when it comes to training the next generation of scientists.

One of the big, recent innovations by the CMS collaboration—a new trigger installed in their experiment at the Large Hadron Collider—has produced its first data set. The analysis of this data has started. Scientists expect it will either reveal new physics or set more stringent limits in the search for long-lived particles.

Don Lincoln explores if spaghettification is real and will an object get stretched as it falls into a black hole?

Fermilab signs international agreement with U.K. institutions to collaborate on building a 100-meter-long atom interferometry experiment. It will enable scientists to demonstrate the superposition of atoms and advance the search for ultralight dark-matter particles.

Fermilab welcomes the public back to Wilson Hall beginning January 23, to visit designated areas Monday through Friday.

Please read a message from the Fermilab director on visiting the lab’s campus.

The first components for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment have arrived in Lead, SD. Starting this spring the LBNF/DUNE project team and officials at the Sanford Underground Research Facility will begin tests to ensure cryostats for the experiment can be safely lowered down the Ross Shaft.
