What’s it like to be part of an experiment collaboration in the weeks and days before a big announcement?
Fermilab features
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.
More than 1,350 physicists from around the world will converge in Chicago for the biennial ICHEP conference in August to share new research results, announce new projects, and talk about the most intriguing mysteries of the universe.
The 27th International Conference on Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics, commonly called Neutrino 2016, will bring together scientists from experiments around the world. Scientists working with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory will give numerous presentations at Neutrino 2016 and unveil some significant results.
Helen Edwards, one of the most vital contributors to the success of Fermilab over its five-decade history, died on June 21 at the age of 80.
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.
