A new underground research space at Fermilab allows scientists to study superconducting quantum qubits in an environment with significantly reduced interference caused by cosmic rays. The laboratory, called QUIET, has a twin at the Earth’s surface named LOUD. This arrangement allows for controlled direct comparisons of quantum sensor and computing experiments.
Through unique qubit fabrication techniques, scientists have demonstrated systematic improvements in the performance of superconducting devices for quantum computing, communication, and sensing.
Fermilab received visitors from the São Paulo Research Foundation, including the foundation’s executive director, Carlos Américo Pacheco. The group came to hear from researchers and engineers about how Fermilab brings technologies together from across disciplines to make advances in particle physics, quantum computing and more.
Postdoctoral researcher Jelani Hannah aims to foster collaboration among teams of researchers during his three-year Joint Task Force Initiative fellowship at Fermilab.
Samantha Panock, an environmental specialist at Fermilab, talks about the role she plays in the ongoing scientific efforts at Fermilab within the Environment, Health and Safety Division, some of her daily tasks, her passion for martial arts, and much more.
A grant from the U.S. federal government has enabled a collaborative project between Fermilab and California-based RadiaBeam Technologies to design and build a conduction-cooled cryomodule. This cryomodule will make it possible for small businesses to take advantage of compact superconducting radiofrequency accelerators for their industrial needs.
As excavation work wraps up in South Dakota, site work at Fermilab’s Batavia campus is setting the stage for the next phase of the international DUNE collaboration.
A new economic impact study shows the growing positive effects on economies in the U.S. through operations conducted by Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. In Illinois and South Dakota, positive ripple effects from Fermilab spending contributed $1.6 billion in economic output during fiscal year 2022 and supported 7,242 jobs.
Fermilab’s 2024 Inventor Recognition Ceremony celebrated patents and ideas from Fermilab employees with notable guests. In 2023, 12 new patents were issued with 16 inventors associated with those patents working at Fermilab.
The funded research areas include state-of-the-art technologies for detecting dark matter; 3D integrated sensors to process tiny, ultrafast signals with high precision; and powerful, compact electron-beam accelerators for industrial use.
