Researchers at Northwestern University, with support from Fermilab have developed a groundbreaking method for 3D printing high-temperature superconductors. The research marks the first time ceramic superconductors have been 3D printed with a monocrystalline microstructure.

For more than two decades, a particle beam from Fermilab has been aimed at the NOvA experiment in Arrowhead, Minn. where researchers have been trying to understand neutrinos.

Brazil is a leading collaborator in the development of innovative technologies for the DUNE experiment. The State University of Campinas (Unicamp) is developing technologies for the liquid argon purification process and the X-Arapuca light detector.

Researchers at Fermilab and Northwestern University invented a new method aimed to explore new technologies that can revolutionize the design and manufacturing of superconducting undulators through the introduction of high-temperature superconductors and 3D printing. Fermilab’s Cristian Boffo co-authored on the paper received LDRD funding for this research.

The first two baby bison were born April 21 at Fermilab, welcoming the start of spring.

The MUonE experiment at CERN could search for dark matter particles in addition to studying the muon’s magnetic moment.

The discovery of the Higgs boson announced on July 4, 2012 by teams working at the ATLAS and CMS confirmed the theoretical framework proposed in the 1960s by Peter Higgs and others.

The SpringBoard Summer Series offered by KidsMatter and key community partners is expanding this year with the introduction of a new Physical & Life Sciences program at Fermilab. The Series offers free classwork and field experiences in a variety of popular career sectors to high school students.

The Cern Courier explores the experimental results and theoretical calculations used to predict ‘muon g-2’ – one of particle physics’ most precisely known quantities and the subject of a fast-evolving anomaly.

The ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb collaborations received the 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics on behalf of the CMS Collaboration on April 5, 2025.
