Electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force are two distinct fundamental forces. That wasn’t always the case.

The Trillion Parameter Consortium was recently launched bringing together science teams to address key challenges in advancing AI for science. Fermilab is part of this international group that includes researchers from federal laboratories, research institutes, academia, and industry.

Don Lincoln highlights how a recent development described in the journal Nature involving miniature particle accelerator technology could advance cancer treatment. Although the technology is a long way from being perfected, it could take the form of a pocket-sized accelerator that could irradiate tumors more precisely without damaging health tissue.

Phenomenologists must make precise predictions for what they expect DUNE data to look like.

The Chicagoland region is continuing to be recognized as a national leader in quantum technology. Recent events include the opening of the Quantum Garage at Fermilab. This designation and the collaboration among Illinois universities and national laboratories like FermiLab and Argonne will spark a new wave of research, innovation and experimentation.

As upgrades enable the LHC to produce more and more particle collisions, physicists are using machine learning to keep up with the growing task of sorting through everything.

Fermilab’s Don Lincoln explores if additional dimensions of space exist beyond our 3-dimensional world. Maybe the exploring the existence of ghosts can offer up some clues?

The Fermilab Natural Areas was one of three organizations who were recently recognized for their outstanding contributions to pollinator conservation. FNA received the Pat Miller Community Engagement Award for their comprehensive outreach and public engagement about ecology, native plants and land stewardship.

Fermilab opened a brand-new quantum laboratory known as the “Quantum Garage” intended to use quantum computing to expand the boundaries of science and engineering and find solutions to pressing challenges including national security, medicine and clean energy. The event on Nov. 6 was attended by officials from DOE, NASA and other national labs.

The Muon g-2 collaboration recently reported a new measurement of the so-called positive muon magnetic moment anomaly to a precision of 140 parts per billion. The collaboration’s findings are published in the journal Physical Review Letters.
