Mischa Zupko, adjunct faculty member of the School of Music at DePaul University, will collaborate with scientists at Fermilab and members of the Chicago-based Civitas Ensemble to create music based on scientific models in particle science.
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.
Fermilab welcomes the public back to Wilson Hall beginning January 23, to visit designated areas Monday through Friday.
In the culmination of a decade’s worth of effort, the DES collaboration of scientists analyzed an unprecedented sample of more than 1,500 supernovae classified using machine learning. They placed the strongest constraints on the expansion of the universe ever obtained with the DES supernova survey. While consistent with the current standard cosmological model, the results do not rule out a more complex theory that the density of dark energy in the universe could have varied over time.
The 2023 P5 report represents the major activity in the field of particle physics that delivers recommendations to U.S. funding agencies.
On Nov. 17, representatives of funding agencies from five countries signed a memorandum of understanding, affirming their commitment to contribute to the construction of components for DUNE.
The Fermilab-hosted SQMS Center achieved a significant milestone with the opening of one of the largest quantum research laboratories in the country. The lab hosts multiple experimental platforms at the forefront of quantum information science, technology and workforce development.
DOE awarded Fermilab $9 million to further develop technology for national-scale quantum networks to improve the transmission of information as part of the Advanced Quantum Network for Scientific Discovery project.
With up to a million X-ray flashes per second, 8,000 times more than its predecessor, it transforms the ability of scientists to explore atomic-scale, ultrafast phenomena that are key to a broad range of applications, from quantum materials to clean-energy technologies and medicine.
Scientists working on Fermilab’s Muon g-2 experiment released the world’s most precise measurement yet of the magnetic moment of the muon, bringing particle physics closer to the ultimate showdown between theory and experiment that may uncover new particles or forces.
