The Department of Energy has been supporting basic research in 1985 has set the foundation for today’s quantum technology.

For 25 years, physicists have been puzzled by the way muons wobble in a magnetic field. Recent collider experiments showing discrepancies to other experiments could be a hint of unknown particles.

A prototype for the world’s biggest neutrino experiment is running under extreme conditions to see how well the technology performs under pressure.

The awards will support Fermilab projects by leveraging AI to boost innovation and technology development, advance DOE’s Genesis Mission and accelerate scientific discovery.

NPR interviewed the head of the Fermilab education and public engagement division, Natalie Johnson, about Fermilab’s quantum programs for young students and the growth of quantum research in Illinois.

Each year for Neutrino Day, SDPB hosts a special live broadcast a mile underground. This year, SDPB spoke with Mike Headley, SURF laboratory director, Dr. Sowjanya Gollapinni, senior scientist for Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and others about DUNE and Neutrino Day events in Lead, SD.

SURF and partner organizations hosted the 18th annual Neutrino Day in Lead, SD on July 11. As a sponsor, Fermilab hosted an interactive livestream event from underground, an Ask a Scientist table and many lab staff were on hand to answer questions about DUNE.

Fermilab crews have successfully placed the first beamline component in the tunnel that will house the powerful new PIP-II linear accelerator, marking a major milestone for the lab’s future neutrino research program.

As Fermilab commemorates 70 years since the discovery of the neutrino at the Savannah River Site in the United States, the lab also celebrates its multiple generations of pioneering neutrino research. Today, Fermilab is building the next era of neutrino discovery through the development of the world-leading Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.

The Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit known as QICK, is an RF control and readout system developed by engineers at Fermilab in collaboration with university research groups and industry partners, with the firmware, software, and hardware fully open source.
