Anna Grassellino of Fermilab will serve on SCAC and chair the quantum subcommittee, tasked with advancing national quantum goals.

Fermilab sent its final contribution for the high-energy upgrade of the superconducting accelerator for SLAC’s X-ray laser, LCLS. The technology they developed will be transferred to industry for semiconductor-chip production and will be used in the Proton Improvement Plan-II, one of Fermilab’s flagship projects.

Fermilab and Northern Illinois University are joining forces to offer a unique Master of Science in Physics program specializing in quantum science and technology. This innovative graduate program combines the expertise of a DOE national laboratory quantum center and a prominent state university to prepare the next generation of quantum experts.

This past weekend, a new group of high school students graduated from the Saturday Morning Quantum program. Hosted by Fermilab, the course allows students to engage directly with lab quantum scientists and engineers while exploring core topics in quantum science.

After joining Fermilab in 2020, Jacopo Bernardini was recently appointed level-3 manager for the 650-MHz cryomodules for the Proton Improvement Plan-II project. PIP-II is building a new, powerful linear accelerator that will create the world’s most intense beam of neutrinos for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. An amateur triathlete outside of work, Bernardini enjoys working with collaborators around the world as well as watching a design become reality.

With a sharp focus on Fermilab’s core scientific mission, Norbert Holtkamp is establishing clear priorities and a disciplined strategy that align the laboratory with the nation’s most ambitious research goals. His leadership is positioning Fermilab for long‑term success.

Supported by a DOE Early Career Award, a Fermilab scientist is building a scalable superconducting cavity array to detect faint signals from mysterious dark photons with unprecedented speed and sensitivity.

Researchers at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, working as part of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment collaboration, are perfecting an innovative power-over-fiber system to enable photon detectors to operate reliably in cryogenic, high-voltage conditions.

Today is the official start of spring at Fermilab, with the arrival of the first bison calf to the lab’s beloved American bison herd.

The Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab received the prestigious Breakthrough Prize in fundamental physics for its precision measurement of the muon.
