From The Conversation, Aug. 10, 2023: The new results of the Muon g-2 experiment are summarized by a group of Postdocs from the University of Liverpool. The latest results examined four times as many muons as the 2021 result, cutting the total uncertainty by a factor of two. This makes the measurement the most precise determination of the muon’s wobble ever made on Muon g-2.
From the Chicago Tribune, Aug. 10, 2023: This week Fermilab hosted the first U.S. Quantum Information Science school for 150 students, including scientists, researchers, college students and industry professionals. The program aims to educate the next generation of researchers on quantum device design and fabrication; quantum computing algorithms; quantum sensing; and cryogenics.
From Interesting Engineering, Aug. 9, 2023: For more than a decade, SLAC has been preparing to power the world’s most powerful X-ray free electron laser by getting electrons to fly through a new superconducting accelerator called the Linac Coherent Light Source II. Fermilab is one of the four national labs to contribute to the engineering of this powerful superconducting X-ray machine.
How does sunscreen work on the atomic level?
From the The Globe and Mail (Canada), Aug. 5, 2023: Scientists and researchers at SNOLAB are assembling a new experiment known as the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search to help solve the mystery of, what is the dark of dark matter? Fermilab associate scientist, Daniel Baxter who worked at the SNOLAB facility two kilometers beneath the Earth’s surface, weighs in.
From Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, July 25, 2023: PNNL scientists and a team of university and national laboratory collaborators recently published a paper detailing a new detector design that can be fine-tuned to increase sensitivity to physics beyond the original DUNE concept.
From msn.com, July 26, 2023: The story of Felicia the ferret with her amazing contribution of helping clean and decontaminate the tunnels of main ring particle accelerator in 1971 is still making headlines around the world.
From Big Think, July 23, 2023: Fermilab’s Don Lincoln discusses how using a powerful particle accelerator, researchers at Fermilab have attempted to create a very light form of dark matter and recently published their results.
New results from a neutrino telescope and a gravitational-wave observatory show how astronomers use different forms of messengers to study the cosmos.
From PNNL, July 25, 2023: PNNL researchers and a team of university and national laboratory collaborators recently published a paper detailing a new detector design that can be fine-tuned to increase sensitivity to physics beyond the original DUNE concept. The new detector, named SLoMo, will enhances DUNE’s sensitivity to neutrinos emitted from sources other than the beam of neutrinos created at Fermilab.
