Polish university will contribute cryogenic distribution system for the PIP-II project, an upgrade of Fermilab’s accelerator complex.
After less than a year of data taking, DESI has already mapped out more galaxies than all previous 3D surveys combined — and it’s just getting started.
For years, scientists have wondered how the observed afterglow of the Big Bang relates to the distribution of galaxies in our universe. Now, thanks to a new map of dark matter, they have direct evidence that a cold region in the afterglow coincides with the lack of matter in the same patch of the sky.
Physicists are revisiting what they previously assumed about how dark matter interacts with itself.
Scientists at the Fermilab-led Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center have discovered that nanohydrides, variants of an imperfection found in advanced superconducting materials for particle accelerators, also affect industrially produced superconducting qubits.
As part of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, a UK-US collaboration is preparing for industrial scale production of large particle detector components. This fall, it’s taking the first ones for a final test-drive.
Large, powerful magnets are a vital component of particle accelerators. The general rule is, the stronger the magnetic field, the better. For many particle accelerator applications, it is as important how fast a magnet can reach its peak strength and then ramp down again. A team at Fermilab now has achieved the world’s fastest ramping rates for accelerator magnets using high-temperature superconductors.
A little over a year into construction, the structure of the building that will house the cryogenic equipment for the PIP-II particle accelerator is largely complete.
Accelerator experts at three national labs have advanced the next generation of cryomodules, the building blocks of particle accelerators. A prototype built for the high-energy upgrade of SLAC’s LCLS-II X-ray laser has advanced the state of the art, packing more acceleration into a smaller distance, and could dramatically improve future accelerators.
Students in the Alaska Native Science & Engineering Program hope to use skills they developed at Fermilab to benefit Indigenous communities.
