Scientists in the particle physics community are bringing environmental and climate issues to the table in discussions about future research.

Anton Zeilinger, who received the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics, pioneered research on quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping. These technologies are instrumental in the success of the Illinois-Express Quantum Network, which recently published a paper outlining its design concepts and implementation. The technologies are also the basis for the quantum devices that generate the network.

For the first time, particle physicists have been able to precisely measure the proton’s size and structure using neutrinos with data gathered from thousands of neutrino-hydrogen scattering events collected by MINERvA, a particle physics experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory.

Their analysis combines Dark Energy Survey, South Pole Telescope data to better understand the evolution of universe.

SQMS Center researchers have identified a new contribution to a qubit’s performance by probing and simulating several-atom-thick layers called silicides.

Fermilab selects its 2023 artist for its year-long artist-in-residence program.

A mile underground in South Dakota, construction crews have worked diligently to carve out an extensive network of caverns and tunnels that one day will house a huge neutrino experiment. Their efforts have paid off: With almost 400,000 tons of rock extracted from the earth, the excavation has reached the halfway point.

Fermilab selected its next guest composer for the year-long residency program.

A physicist, a composer and a creative technician team up to translate the unseen particles around us into a format that human bodies can understand.

Construction may now begin on the PIP-II Linac Complex. The tunnel and building will house the new linear particle accelerator that will power the physics programs and neutrino research at Fermilab for the coming decades.
