Fermilab features

Nobody at Fermilab knows the bison herd better than Cleo Garcia, who has worked at Fermilab for 14 years.

The delivery of 50-MeV beam is the first step in establishing an accelerator R&D facility that will serve as one of America’s leading test beds for cutting-edge, record-high-intensity particle beam research.

Fermilab’s partnership with the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre in Mumbai, India, recently bore its first fruit: preproduction magnets designed and built at the India laboratory. The magnets were installed and tested at the Fermilab PIP-II Injector Test Accelerator in late March.

A new radio-frequency quadrupole, designed and built by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, will help provide intense, focused beams to the entire Fermilab accelerator complex.

The Brazilian user community at Fermilab consists of nearly 80 researchers from 15 institutions working across 13 different projects and experiments.

Theorists map and navigate the sea of possible particle discoveries.

Physicists up and down the Western Hemisphere are fans of neutrinos, and experiments to study the subtle particle are flourishing at Fermilab and throughout Latin America.

On April 27, Fermilab broke ground on the building that will house the future Short-Baseline Near Detector. The particle detector is one of three that, together, Fermilab scientists and collaborators will use to search for the sterile neutrino.

The recently installed ANNIE neutrino experiment at Fermilab will use a new kind of detector to get a fine-grain view of neutrino-nucleon interactions.

The collaboration between Russian institutions and Fermilab in the 1980s became, for some, a symbol of two competing countries overcoming their differences and working together to move the field of particle physics forward.
