The excavation of the caverns that will house the gigantic particle detectors of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in Lead, South Dakota is complete. Final outfitting of the colossal caverns will begin soon and make way for the start of the installation of the DUNE detectors later this year.
Researchers at Fermilab have demonstrated that particle accelerator technology can be used to destroy chemicals known as PFAS, which cannot be broken down effectively by other known methods.
One of the big, recent innovations by the CMS collaboration—a new trigger installed in their experiment at the Large Hadron Collider—has produced its first data set. The analysis of this data has started. Scientists expect it will either reveal new physics or set more stringent limits in the search for long-lived particles.
Fermilab signs international agreement with U.K. institutions to collaborate on building a 100-meter-long atom interferometry experiment. It will enable scientists to demonstrate the superposition of atoms and advance the search for ultralight dark-matter particles.
Fermilab welcomes the public back to Wilson Hall beginning January 23, to visit designated areas Monday through Friday.
Please read a message from the Fermilab director on visiting the lab’s campus.
Scientists at Fermilab have received funding from the DOE Office of Technology Transitions and the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management to develop devices that generate particles to be accelerated in compact accelerators. The final result could be a machine for metal 3D printing and other applications.
The United Kingdom will contribute superconducting cryomodules to Fermilab’s new particle accelerator. Collaborators shipped a fully equipped, 27,500-pound prototype from Fermilab to the U.K. and back to test the logistics.
A delegation of researchers from a dozen organizations in the U.K. met with Fermilab scientists. They saw firsthand Fermilab’s connection to the Illinois-Express Quantum Network.
Northern Illinois University Professor Nicholas Pohlman has obtained a Department of Energy RENEW grant to begin a program that brings students from underrepresented groups to Fermilab for research on magnets for particle accelerators.
