Prototyping is an indispensable step in the development of particle physics experiments like DUNE and projects like PIP-II.

The first newborn calf of spring was born on April 13, signaling the start of Fermilab’s baby bison season.

On April 13, Gov. Pritzker and other local legislators joined DOE officials at Fermilab for the “Building Fermilab’s Future” event, which marked the opening of the IERC and PIP-II Cryoplant buildings and the groundbreaking for the Linac Complex.

The new building, named the Integrated Engineering Research Center, provides state-of-the-art lab space and will make research and development a more collaborative and centralized process at Fermilab.

Dark matter could consist of particles so ultralight, they behave more like waves. 

Scientists working on the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment are developing a vertical drift detector. The new technology may open doors to building large neutrino detectors at a lower cost and in a simpler manner.

The international DUNE collaboration is conducting final tests of the components for its first neutrino detector module, to be installed a mile underground in South Dakota. Preparations for ramping up the mass production of these components are underway.

Representatives from science funding agencies from around the world will convene in Lead, South Dakota, the future home of the large particle detector for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.

After years of running her own business, Holly Lett came to Fermilab to help its employees reach their highest career aspirations. Now, her team is revamping online-trainings and spearheading a new leadership class for Fermilab employees.

Students in the fashion studies department at College of DuPage designed personal protective equipment for SPOT, a dog-like robot that can send data back to researchers from areas that are unsafe for humans due to environmental hazards, such as radiation.
