Don Lincoln explores if spaghettification is real and will an object get stretched as it falls into a black hole?

The first components for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment have arrived in Lead, SD. Starting this spring the LBNF/DUNE project team and officials at the Sanford Underground Research Facility will begin tests to ensure cryostats for the experiment can be safely lowered down the Ross Shaft.

Anna Grassellino speaks with Physics World on why cross-disciplinary collaboration within the national laboratory framework and enabling technologies pioneered at Fermilab at the SQMS Center are leading to the success of practical applications of quantum computing and quantum sensing.

The P5 Panel’s bold suggestion to build a muon collider in the U.S. could be a good opportunity to unite particle physicists from around the world to establish whether a muon collider is feasible, at what cost and discover who can contribute expertise and facilities.

The most recent results from Dark Energy Survey of over 1,500 supernovas taken by the by the DECam calls the standard model of cosmology into question.

The P5 panel’s recent report identified several critical areas in cosmic evolution, neutrinos and dark matter where next-generation facilities could make a dramatic impact, including Fermilab.

The culmination of 25 years of research by astrophysicists of the Dark Energy Survey team has concluded that the Universe is expanding at an accelerating rate. The Dark Energy Survey observed almost two million distant galaxies using the Dark Energy Camera built and tested by Fermilab
making this the largest, deepest supernova sample ever obtained from a single telescope.

The new Dark Energy Survey year five results used machine learning to obtain a new measurement that offers insights into the density of the mysterious force driving the Universe’s expansion. The results were presented recently at the 243rd meeting of the American Astronomical Society meeting. What does this all mean? Don Lincoln explains.

Don Lincoln explores the mysteries of black holes and if we will ever really know what lies in the center of these enormous cosmic regions in space.

Interesting Engineering lists the top seven amazing innovations that pushed the boundaries of science and technology in 2023. Included in this line up is the latest announcement from the Muon g-2 collaboration with more evidence of a new force of nature that could revolutionize our understanding of the universe.
