From The Rapid City Journal, August 12, 2021: The SURF Davis-Bahcall Scholars Program exposes university freshmen and sophomores in STEM fields to a variety of disciplines helping them decide their college major. This year students took a tour of SURF in Lead, SD and they had the opportunity to speak with scientists and engineers from Fermilab.
Back when it was theorized, scientists weren’t sure they would ever detect the neutrino. Now scientists, including some at Fermilab, are searching for a version of the particle that could be even more elusive.
From the Patch Across America, Aug. 13, 2021: LIGO communications specialist Corey Gray translated gravitational wave astronomy to speakers of the indigenous Blackfoot language with the help of his mother. The story recounts his journey connecting the Blackfoot language to gravitational wave astronomy and details on his virtual event with Fermilab on Aug. 20.
From The Daily Herald, August 11, 2021: Two US Representatives and the White House National Climate Advisor toured Fermilab and Argonne this week to promote the economic and environmental benefits of President Biden’s proposed infrastructure plan that passed a U.S. Senate hurdle earlier that day.
From CNN, August 10, 2021: Fermilab’s Don Lincoln discusses the sixth version of the IPCC climate report released on Monday on the dangers of advancing global warming , cleaner forms of energy and storing energy using new battery technologies.
For the first time, African physicists and other researchers are creating a grassroots strategy for the future of physics research and education.
From Queen Mary University of London, April 26, 2021: Fermilab scientist Dr. Kirsty Duffy was awarded the Ernest Rutherford Fellowship from the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) to establish a new research group working on MicroBooNE at Queen Mary University of London. Duffy will continue to host the Even Bananas video series which explores neutrinos until the end of the year.
From Sciences et Avenir (France), August 6, 2021: Two recent physics experiments, Muon g-2 and the LHCb, have upset the whole physics of matter possibly finding new forces. Fermilab’s Muon g-2 experiment measured the muon’s magnetic moment confirming the Brookhaven result that revealed it didn’t match the theory.
From Science News Online, August 5, 2021: Science writer Emily Conover explores the fascinating world of neutrino detectors that make the invisible world of particles visible. Read more about how neutrino detectors have evolved with insights Fermilab’s Jennifer Raaf and Sam Zeller.
From U Chicago News, August 4, 2021: The connection between art and science has always been part of Fermilab’s framework. This year’s artist-in-residence program features two artists who will translate the data of science into music and art to help increase public understanding of scientists work.
