Scientists want to connect the fundamental forces of nature in one Grand Unified Theory.

Accelerator scientists are in demand at labs and beyond.

From the Beacon-News, April 18, 2016: Fermilab in Batavia offered its 29th Wonders of Science event, which featured three current and retired high school teachers from the area performing a variety of experiments designed to make learning about science exciting.

Light is all around us, but how much do you really know about the photons speeding past you?

From PBS Digital Studios’ The Good Stuff: Dark matter makes up 70 percent of the known universe, and we know very little about it. This video on dark matter includes an interview with theorist Patrick Fox and a tour of the MINOS underground area at Fermilab.

From Silicon Republic, April 8, 2016: Researchers in the United States, including Fermilab researchers, and CERN have teamed up to produce 20 new accelerator magnets, which, when put together into the next LHC in 2026, will up its power by a factor of ten.

One: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will look for more than just neutrinos.

A partnership between three national U.S. laboratories and CERN to upgrade the LHC has yielded the strongest accelerator magnet ever created.

From OSTI blog, April 1, 2016: The DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information is working with Fermilab scientist Jim Simone to register scientific datasets produced by a domain collaboration.
