Fermilab features
On the road to the world’s largest neutrino detector, take the “DUNE Buggy.”
The Fermilab bison herd, a symbol of the laboratory’s pioneering spirit, are genetically pure, with not a bit of cattle genetics in evidence.
Before the Dark Energy Survey began in August 2013, scientists spent months testing the Dark Energy Camera, putting it through its paces. Now, catalogs of galaxies and stars derived from the data collected during the Science Verification season have been released to the public.
Keenan Newton of the Core Computing Division is well-versed in DocDB, Indico, SharePoint and WordPress. He’s also a volunteer firefighter.
The future of Fermilab is global, as exemplified by the DUNE international effort.
In September, eight research laboratories from around the globe hosted over 200 photographers at their world-class facilities for a Global Physics Photowalk. Interactions announces the winners.
Members of the Dark Energy Survey have partnered with the LIGO experiment in the hunt for gravitational waves. They’re the DES-GW group. DES-GW will use the Dark Energy Camera to help LIGO search for the source of the gravitational waves it detects.
Pranav Sivakumar, a student at the Illinois Math and Science Academy, was recently recognized by President Barack Obama at White House Astronomy Night. Fermilab Ask-a-Scientist and Saturday Morning Physics talks were significant influences in his decision to pursue science.
Fermi Research Alliance LLC, a partnership between the University of Chicago and Universities Research Association, has appointed several distinguished new members to its board of directors.
