Fermilab features

The influence and impact of physicists from Japan on Fermilab research started in the 1970s and is still strong today.

A furry critter and its four-mile trek through an accelerator pipe comes to the lab’s rescue in its early days.

Fermilab’s summer interns exchange lazy days for lab experience.

A story of the fate of some walnut trees on the laboratory site in 1979 takes us inside the Wilson Hall stairways.

The puzzle: understanding how nearly undetectable particles, called neutrinos, interact with normal matter. The solution? The clever MINERvA experiment, which shares its name with the Roman goddess of wisdom.

The Fermilab bison herd is now in pictures! Watch a 2-minute video, look at a map of the herd’s heritage, and read a playful letter of introduction from the lab’s first herd.

Tooting our horn: Fermilab has the most expertise in constructing neutrino horns, which focus the particles that eventually decay into neutrinos. Learn how they work.

Fermilab’s TRAC program helps middle and high school teachers turn lab experiences into lessons or exercises for their students.

What’s it like to be part of an experiment collaboration in the weeks and days before a big announcement?

After more than a decade of running, on June 29, the Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search experiment and its second iteration, MINOS+, concluded their runs.
