In the news
From Live Science, Aug. 28, 2018: Fermilab and CMS scientist Don Lincoln explains the latest exciting result from the Large Hadron Collider: ATLAS and CMS’s first unambiguous observation of Higgs bosons decaying into a matter-antimatter pair of bottom quarks. Surprisingly, the Higgs bosons decay most often in this way.
From GeekWire, Aug. 28, 2018: It took several years for ATLAS and CMS researchers to nail down the evidence of the Higgs decay into two b quarks to a standard significance of 5-sigma. Researchers had to sift through billions of data points from two collider runs to boost their confidence sufficiently.
From CNN, Aug. 25, 2018: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explains the recent buzzworthy solution to the famous spaghetti mystery posed by Richard Feynman.
From The Story Collider, Aug. 24, 2018: Fermilab scientist Herman White tells the story about leaving his hometown of Tuskegee to pursue physics. His Alabama roots help him make a surprising connection later in his career.
From Michigan State University, Aug. 22, 2018: DUNE scientist Kendall Mahn of Michigan State University is featured in this article on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, which recently published its Interim Design Report.
From WGN TV, Aug. 23, 2018: This 3-minute video highlights the bison herd at Fermilab and features Fermilab Director Nigel Lockyer and Roads and Grounds Manager Dave Shemanske.
From Meteoweb, July 26, 2018: Il Progetto PIP-II è un passo cruciale per la realizzazione del futuro esperimento DUNE che sarà realizzato nella struttura sperimentale a lunga distanza (LBNF) progettata dal Fermilab.
From World Nuclear News, Aug. 20, 2018: An intergovernmental agreement on a neutrino physics collaboration, signed with Fermilab in April, has opened the possibility of for in-kind contributions by the two countries to each other’s neutrino projects.
From The Physics Teacher, Aug. 20, 2018: Fermilab 2014-15 artist-in-residence Lindsay Olson and Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln tell the story of how they came to collaborate and generate creative art that can interest the public about some of the most exciting and mind-blowing science.
