A pair of results bring neutrinos into the new era of multimessenger astronomy.

From FAPESP’s Pesquisa, March 2018: International researchers are constantly looking for lighter particles in the hope of finding dark matter, including at the DarkSide-50 experiment, CDMS and the Dark Energy Survey.

From Physics Today, July 1, 2018: Fermilab scientist Vladimir Shiltsev, who has worked with the journal Physics–Uspekhi for almost four decades, provides a brief history of the journal, whose centennial was in April 2018.

From Daily Herald, July 10, 2018: There is a patch of suburbia where World Cup excitement is accelerating and loyalties are about to collide: Fermilab, our government’s particle physics and accelerator laboratory in Batavia.

From Gizmodo, July 3, 2018: The Muon g-2 experiment is slated to release new data about the muon magnetic moment as early as next year, which will inform physicists as to whether there are strange, undiscovered particles out there — or not.

From Scientific American, June 27, 2018: There are plenty of arguments for why the lesser known Greek letter should be as popular as its more famous cousin, pi. Tau is the name given to one of the charged leptons and its partner neutrino, discovered in 2000 at Fermilab.

From Spektrum, July 2, 2018: Woher stammen die Sterne der Milchstraße? Eine Himmelskartierung stößt auf eine Reihe von Besuchern – Sternströme aus fremden Galaxien.

Meet four physicists who have found different ways to apply the skills they learned through their studies of the Higgs boson.

From Space.com, July 2, 2018: Scientists test the first experiment sensitive enough to detect axions — ADMX. Fermilab scientist Andrew Sonnenschein highlights the connection between the ADMX experiment and quantum computing.

Nothing beats a small experiment for the breadth of experience it gives the scientist.
