Fermilab experts demonstrate their expertise in designing, building and testing unique accelerator magnets for the upgrade of the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
The Teacher Research Associates program invites educators to Fermilab’s campus to work with Fermilab scientists and engineers using Fermilab equipment and lab spaces for research projects. The application deadline for this year’s program is Feb. 18.
The director general and other guests from Spain’s Centre for Energy, Environmental and Technological Research visited Fermilab. Their visit focused on their collaboration on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and gave the CIEMAT delegation an opportunity to learn about Fermilab’s other research capabilities.
The award-winning, state-of-the-art research facility is now officially ready to host scientific exploration, collaboration and innovation.
A professor at the University of Tennessee reimagines the way we teach STEM with a science-fiction story-based class.
In the culmination of a decade’s worth of effort, the DES collaboration of scientists analyzed an unprecedented sample of more than 1,500 supernovae classified using machine learning. They placed the strongest constraints on the expansion of the universe ever obtained with the DES supernova survey. While consistent with the current standard cosmological model, the results do not rule out a more complex theory that the density of dark energy in the universe could have varied over time.
In Her Space, Her Time, physicist Shohini Ghose elucidates the stories of women scientists who contributed to and led some of the biggest breakthroughs in astronomy and physics.
Scientists on the ATLAS collaboration performed the highest-energy measurement of quantum entanglement.
After twenty years of research, development, testing and production, the United States is now shipping state-of-the-art superconducting accelerator magnets to CERN for the high-luminosity upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider. At the heart of these powerful magnets is a new superconducting material used for the first time in a particle accelerator.
