Every seat was filled for Wednesday’s colloquium on the engineering and commissioning of the James Webb Space Telescope.
Fermilab Director Lia Merminga presented an overview of the lab’s achievements at an all-hands meeting on Dec. 19, and people mingled in the Wilson Hall atrium and art gallery for the lab’s end-of-year celebration.
On Dec. 7 it was a full house for Bonnie Fleming with the return of the colloquium after a very long hiatus due to the pandemic.
Fermilab’s Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center is announcing a new fellowship opportunity for Black and African American postdoctoral scholars. The Carolyn B. Parker Fellowship honors the legacy of the first African American woman to earn a postgraduate degree in physics.
Fermilab scientists and engineers are developing a machine learning platform to help run Fermilab’s accelerator complex alongside a fast-response machine learning application for accelerating particle beams. The programs will work in tandem to boost efficiency and energy conservation in Fermilab accelerators.
Magnets play a key role in looking for the direct transformation of muons into electrons, a theorized phenomenon that Fermilab’s Mu2e experiment will hunt for when it comes online in 2023. In an important milestone, seven essential magnets have passed testing and been accepted for the construction of the experiment.
