From Expansiòn, en alianza con CNN, Sept. 21, 2018: La teoría de su origen nos ha dejado con una pregunta desconcertante: ¿En dónde rayos está la antimateria?, comenta Don Lincoln.

From ars technica, Oct. 3, 2018: He was a leading light of particle physics, directing one of the most prestigious physics laboratories in the world. He won the Nobel Prize and irked his physics colleagues by coining the term “the god particle” to describe the Higgs boson. That long, rich life ended the early morning of Oct. 3 when physicist Leon Lederman died of complications from dementia at the age of 96.

An SRF team at Fermilab has demonstrated record performance from an accelerating cavity using a technique that could lead to significant cost savings for future accelerators.

From NPR, Oct. 5, 2018: Astronomer Jill Tarter, chair emeritus for SETI Research at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, will present the lecture “A Cosmic Perspective: Searching For Aliens, Finding Ourselves” at Fermilab on Oct. 12.

From Daily Herald, Oct. 4, 2018: Nobel Prize winner. Political advocate for science education who proposed what would become Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The guy who gave an enduring nickname to the Higgs boson. Leon Lederman was that, and more.

From CNN, Sept. 21, 2018: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explains the goals of Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and how the ProtoDUNE detectors will validate the technology of the much larger DUNE.

Three new studies show the promise and challenge of using plasma wakefield acceleration to build a future electron-positron collider.

From Wired UK, Sept. 28, 2018: Fermilab scientist Dan Hooper is quoted in this article on dark matter and the world’s efforts to identify it.

From Live Science, Oct. 4, 2018: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln offers a personal glimpse of the man who was the lab’s director when Lincoln first arrived at Fermilab. “When his Nobel Prize was announced in 1988, my first thought was, ‘What for?’ That wasn’t because I couldn’t think of an accomplishment of his worth the prize, but rather, I couldn’t decide which one.”
