Matter and antimatter behave differently. Scientists hope that investigating how might someday explain why we exist.

I’d worked at the campus particle accelerator lab all four years of college and had built a couple particle accelerators at home. I brought my own cyclotron to my interview here. I think they hired me to keep an eye on me.

Although they might be invisible to the naked eye, contaminants less than a micron in size can ruin very sensitive experiments in particle physics.

The Proton Improvement Plan II, or PIP-II, is a proposed project to improve Fermilab’s particle accelerator complex with a major hardware overhaul and a powerful boost in its capabilities.

Fermilab’s popularity as a birding site is its diversity of species, a measure of the quality of the habitat. Birders have found 287 bird species at Fermilab.

New technology and new thinking are pushing the dark matter hunt to lower and lower masses.

Members of Fermilab’s Technical Division recently achieved a record-high quality factor with a fully dressed cavity for a SLAC-headed project, Linac Coherent Light Source II.

Not only are we made of fundamental particles, we also produce them and are constantly bombarded by them throughout the day.

The MicroBooNE collaboration announced that it has seen its first neutrinos in the experiment’s newly built detector.
