A new radio-frequency quadrupole, designed and built by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, will help provide intense, focused beams to the entire Fermilab accelerator complex.
A reader asks, “If atoms are mostly empty space, then why does anything feel solid?” James Beacham, a researcher with the ATLAS Experiment Group at Ohio State University, explains in this two-minute video.
Physicists up and down the Western Hemisphere are fans of neutrinos, and experiments to study the subtle particle are flourishing at Fermilab and throughout Latin America.
On April 27, Fermilab broke ground on the building that will house the future Short-Baseline Near Detector. The particle detector is one of three that, together, Fermilab scientists and collaborators will use to search for the sterile neutrino.
