DUNE prototype detector observes its first neutrinos

    Fermilab scientists have taken a major step in preparing for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment with a prototype particle accelerator. The 2×2 detector prototype has four liquid argon modules arranged in a square whereas the DUNE detectors will have 35 liquid argon time projection chambers, allowing scientists to track the movements of particles and determine their physical properties.

    The Quest for Everything

      Listen to the podcast story of Dr. Helen Edwards, who was a Fermilab particle physicist who led the design and construction of the Tevatron to probe deeper into the atom than anyone had gone before.

      The muon fails to upend physics as we know it

        The unusually large Muon has threatened the Standard Model for decades, but new data parks the particle inside the confines of established physics. The BMW Collaboration’s recently posted research suggests the difference between the muon’s predicted anomalous magnetic moment and that predicted by the Standard Model is not as large as previous findings suggested.
