It was in June that National Accelerator Laboratory employees first showed up to work and that Leon Lederman became the lab’s second director.

The 50-foot-wide superconducting electromagnet at the center of the experiment saw its first beam of muon particles from Fermilab’s accelerators, kicking off a three-year effort to measure just what happens to those particles when placed in a stunningly precise magnetic field. The answer could rewrite scientists’ picture of the universe and how it works.

How did the proton, photon and other particles get their names?

We’re turning 50! There are several ways to celebrate with Fermilab on June 15 – and prizes for a few lucky participants.

Technicians from CERN and INFN recently converged at Fermilab to help prepare the ICARUS detector’s future home.

How many times must one iterate on a magnet-spool design? Until Dr. Wilson is happy.

MINERvA measures the energy a neutrino imparts to protons and neutrons inside a heavy nucleus.

The PICO experiment homes in on dark matter.

DOE and CERN last week signed three new agreements outlining the contributions CERN will make to the Fermilab neutrino program and DOE’s contributions to the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider upgrade program.

When I first started out here, in 1970, I worked with the farm crew.
