Fermilab features

A new building at Fermilab’s main entrance will provide a better welcome to the laboratory and a smoother site access experience.

Participants in the Energy I-Corps program aim to commercialize the Fermilab-developed Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit. QICK has been helping researchers improve their quantum computing performance while minimizing cost.

Brynn Kristen MacCoy’s work on improving beam dynamics has helped Muon g-2 researchers better understand and account for the behavior of the muon beam.

William Pellico received this year’s URA Honorary Engineering Award highlighting his innovative application of power-over-fiber technology for use in DUNE’s cryogenic environments.

To aid in the search for elusive dark matter, Kevin Pedro looks for ways to harness the capabilities of artificial intelligence for analyzing particle collision data. For this work, Pedro was awarded the 2024 Universities Research Association Honorary Early Career Award.

Ana Martina Botti’s work as a postdoctoral researcher has helped pave the way for more sensitive dark matter searches using skipper CCDs. For this important contribution, Botti was presented the 2024 URA Honorary Tollestrup Award for Postdoctoral Research.

Pantaleo Raimondi’s illustrious career brought him to some of the world’s most prestigious particle physics institutions. In January, Raimondi continued this journey as he took over the role of project director for Fermilab’s newest, more powerful particle accelerator.

During a ceremony at ICHEP, Ngadiuba’s contributions to ultra-fast machine learning techniques and anomaly detection were recognized by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics.

Physicists use large particle detectors filled with liquid argon to study neutrinos. Brazilian scientists discovered that a commercially available material can significantly reduce the amount of nitrogen in liquid argon, which improves the detection of neutrino interactions.

Scientists at Fermilab and University of Chicago used a superconducting qubit to prepare a microwave cavity in a special state to stimulate photons. They hope this technology will help detect the existence of dark matter.
