Fifty years of scientific discovery is a good reason for a celebration. And that’s just what the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory has in store on Saturday, Sept. 23 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
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.
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.
A new exhibit called “A Lasting Mark” will celebrate the contributions of Fermilab’s first and only artist, Angela Gonzales, with an impressive collection of her work.
Baby bison season is here, and all are welcome to visit with and photograph the newborns. Fermilab is expecting the new babies to be joined by at least 10 more over the next six weeks.
Fermilab’s free annual STEM Career Expo puts high school students face to face with professionals in science, technology, engineering and math fields.
The PICO-60 dark matter bubble chamber experiment has produced a new dark matter limit after analysis of data from the most recent run.
Fermilab’s Family Open House is a chance for the whole family to spend an afternoon learning about science in a hands-on way and have fun doing it. This year’s event will mark Fermilab’s 50th anniversary with a new show and several activities for kids and their parents to enjoy.
