An L-beam for a DUNE cryostat is moved in the south cavern, which is nearly a mile below the surface at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. The research space, more than 500 feet long and about seven stories tall, will house one of the experiment’s massive detector modules. Credit: Aaron Thompson, Fermilab

Momentum builds for world-leading neutrino experiment hosted by Fermilab

Construction of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility is entering its next phase, marking a major step forward for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment hosted by Fermilab. With the arrival of critical components and growing momentum across partner institutions, DUNE is moving closer to unlocking long standing mysteries in particle physics and the origins of the universe.

New DOE Early Career project uses magnetic vortices to uncover hidden sources of loss in superconducting quantum devices

Daniel Bafia will develop a new measurement approach that uses magnetic vortices to investigate defects and interfaces that can limit the performance of superconducting quantum devices. The project could provide researchers with a new way to understand and ultimately reduce sources of energy loss in quantum materials.

Fermilab physicist wins DOE Early Career Award to study dark matter with entangled qubits

Building on her earlier work with quantum amplifiers for a leading dark matter experiment, Rakshya Khatiwada will use a four-qubit entangled system to test whether it offers a sensing advantage when exposed to a simulated dark matter signal. The project, based at Fermilab, could open the door to detecting dark matter candidates such as axions and dark photons.
