Fermilab Cosmologist Alex Drlica-Wagner explains recent research charge-coupled devices placed on the SOAR telescope in Chile called Skipper CCDs. Skipper CCDs hold immense potential beyond observing the cosmos including medical imaging and radioisotope detection.
Photonics Spectra, July 15, 2024
A close collaboration of physicists, astronomers, and engineers, including Fermilab researchers, obtained the first astronomical spectrum using skipper charge-coupled devices using an instrument on the 4.1-meter Southern Astrophysical Research Telescope in Chile.
Black Hills Pioneer, July 2024
The Black Hills Pioneer covers what is DUNE and why is it important in a special section covering underground science in the Black Hills region. Starting on page 11, an interview with DUNE Physics Coordinator, Chris Marshall, discusses how the project will work and the science of DUNE.
As part of the international NOvA collaboration, William & Mary scientists are one step closer to unraveling the mysteries of neutrinos, with new results recently presented at the Neutrino 2024 conference. The latest results from the collaboration move science toward larger discoveries about the “ghost” particles of the universe.
Big Think, June 25, 2024
The United Nations declared 2025 to be the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, celebrating the role of quantum theory in developing our modern technological societies. It celebrates past successes and planning for a future in which people around the world can benefit from these crucial technologies.
Chicago Quantum Exchange, June 11, 2024
The Chicago Quantum Exchange and the FBI’s Chicago office recently hosted leaders from industry, government and academia at Fermilab to build communication channels. The first-of-its-kind symposium between law enforcement and technology developers aims to create a national model for cooperation between the quantum ecosystem and the government agencies to protect the nation and its assets.
