Press releases

Scientists on the Dark Energy Survey announced the public release of their first three years of data. This first major release of data includes information on about 400 million astronomical objects.

The world will soon be celebrating the hunt for the universe’s most elusive matter in a series of Dark Matter Day events planned in over a dozen countries.

Researchers from Caltech and the University of Southern California report the first application of quantum computing to a physics problem. By employing quantum-compatible machine learning techniques, they developed a method of extracting a rare Higgs boson signal from copious noise data.

A team of scientists using the Dark Energy Camera was among the first to observe the fiery aftermath of a recently detected burst of gravitational waves, recording images of the first confirmed explosion from two colliding neutron stars ever seen by astronomers.

Lund has been a professor at MSU since 2014 and currently serves on both the Director’s Advisory Council and the Curriculum Committee for the USPAS, working with Director Barletta to coordinate school programs in the community interest.

The United Kingdom and the United States have signed the first ever umbrella science and technology agreement between the two nations, and the UK has committed $88 million to the LBNF/DUNE project.

Dark Energy Survey scientists have unveiled the most accurate measurement ever made of the present large-scale structure of the universe, and their findings support the dark matter/dark energy model.

A groundbreaking ceremony held at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota, marks the start of construction of a massive international experiment that could change our understanding of the universe.

University of Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory and Fermilab prepare for quantum information revolution.

The world’s largest liquid-argon neutrino detector, ICARUS, is about to make its way from CERN to Fermilab to begin its new mission: hunting for a previously undetected fourth type of neutrino.
