Postdoctoral researcher Jelani Hannah aims to foster collaboration among teams of researchers during his three-year Joint Task Force Initiative fellowship at Fermilab.

Spring brings new life to Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory as calving season begins for the lab’s herd of American bison. Today, two bison calves were born at Fermilab. The lab has a long tradition of providing habitat for bison, connecting particle physics research to the Midwestern prairie. This season, 20 baby bison are expected.

Fermilab’s Chief Research Officer Bonnie Fleming has been elected to the prestigious American Academy of Arts & Sciences, honoring excellence and leadership throughout her science career.

For more than 20 years in experimental particle physics and astrophysics, machine learning has been accelerating the pace of science, helping scientists tackle problems of greater and greater complexity.

Don’t know your convolutional neural networks from your boosted decision trees? Symmetry is here to help.

Samantha Panock, an environmental specialist at Fermilab, talks about the role she plays in the ongoing scientific efforts at Fermilab within the Environment, Health and Safety Division, some of her daily tasks, her passion for martial arts, and much more.

A grant from the U.S. federal government has enabled a collaborative project between Fermilab and California-based RadiaBeam Technologies to design and build a conduction-cooled cryomodule. This cryomodule will make it possible for small businesses to take advantage of compact superconducting radiofrequency accelerators for their industrial needs.

In December, the Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel released its recommendations for the future of the field. Among the top priorities was research and development toward future accelerator technology, with a specific mention of the concept of building a muon collider in the U.S.

As excavation work wraps up in South Dakota, site work at Fermilab’s Batavia campus is setting the stage for the next phase of the international DUNE collaboration.

A partnership between Fermilab and xLight Inc. will focus on producing advanced semiconductors in the United States using extreme ultraviolet light and accelerator technology.
