To cool quantum computing components, researchers use machines called dilution refrigerators. Researchers and engineers from the SQMS Center are building Colossus, the largest, most powerful refrigerator at millikelvin temperatures ever made. The new machine will enable new physics and quantum computing experiments.
This year’s list includes a book about an eminent physicist striving to avoid fame, two unique books for children, and a book with equations you’ll actually be able to read.
Traveling by rail, sea, interstates and shafts, the first components of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment have arrived at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota.
Fermilab scientists have developed an experiment to detect dark matter using superconducting qubits as sensors.
Each summer, 10 upper-level university students participate in an internship that exposes them to professional experience in accelerator science and technology.
A new 20,000-pound particle detection system built for a neutrino experiment will be transported 3 miles across the Fermilab campus today. About the size of a small house, it will be the heart of the Short-Baseline Near Detector at Fermilab.
A team of physicists from Caltech, Harvard, Fermilab, MIT and Google present results in the Dec. 1 issue of Nature on a pair of quantum systems that exhibit the behavior of a traversable wormhole.
For the first time, physicists have a statistically significant measurement of the joint polarization of W and Z bosons.
LSST Camera images provide the inspiration for artist Lennart Lahuis’s “Astromelancholia.”
The ASPIRE Fellowship, open to engineering students from underrepresented backgrounds, celebrates its successful first year and looks ahead to 2023. Applications are now open.
