For the past decade, MicroBooNE researchers measured changes in neutrinos using two accelerator neutrino beams

A state-of-the-art experiment at Fermilab is one step closer to collecting experimental data with the completion of a laser laboratory that houses its advanced laser systems

After a series of experiments, MicroBooNE scientists have ruled out the sterile neutrino, taking at least one complication out of explaining phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.

Fermilab will be receiving $8 million from the DOE’s Office of High Energy Physics for 2026 to 2030. The funds will go toward Fermilab’s Veteran Applied Laboratory Occupational Retraining program, which provides training and career opportunities to veterans at the start of their civilian careers

Science magazine highlights their top picks of significant science stories in 2025. Fermilab’s Muon g-2 announcement his year is included in this prestigious listing.

Norbert Holtkamp will take over as the new director of Batavia-based Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory starting Jan. 12.

Fermilab’s Silvia Zorzetti is the principal investigator on a multi-year DOE Early Career Award focused on high-efficiency quantum transduction across microwave and optical domains to interface superconducting quantum computing with photonic networks.

Northern Illinois University has joined the institutions advancing the frontiers of quantum information science through its new partnership in the Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems (SQMS) Center, led by Fermilab.

A major step forward in the fight against persistent water pollution is underway in Illinois, where a national laboratory and a local engineering firm have joined forces to develop a next-generation water treatment system that eliminates harmful PFAS chemicals.

UChicago-affiliated laboratories each receive $125 million to advance next-generation quantum science and technology. Argonne and Fermilab are affiliated with the University of Chicago and share many University faculty and scientists.
