201 - 210 of 3064 results
Wait, didn’t the LHC already “restart?”
Today marks the start of LHC Run 3. So what was #restartingLHC in April all about?
What is quantum information science?
From the DOE National QIS Research Centers, July 5. 2022: In this video series, scientists affiliated with the U.S. Department of Energy National Quantum Information Science Research Centers presented an overview of quantum information science to Congressional staff in May 2022. The event, titled Quantum Information Science for Everyone, hosted presenters who discussed quantum research, its potential impacts, and the importance of U.S. leadership in this burgeoning area of science and engineering.
Quantum Diaries 2022
From Higgs10.org, June 28, 2022: This year marks the 10th anniversary of the announcement of the discovery of the Higgs Boson – the result of an unprecedented global collaboration. To mark occasion, the Interactions collaboration is publishing a new version of Quantum Diaries – with some original bloggers, and some newer physicists inspired by the historic discovery. Fermilab scientists are part of the mix.
Four things physicists still wonder about the Higgs boson
Scientists have learned a lot about the Higgs boson in the decade since they discovered it. But intriguing questions remain.
Higgs boson was discovered 10 years ago. What have we learned about it since then?
From The Big Think, June 29, 2022: Fermilab’s Don Lincoln highlights the 10 year anniversary of the Higgs boson, what we have learned in the past decade and what the next ten years of research and discovery may bring.
Neutrinos: The “ghostly chameleons” of particle physics become even more mysterious
From The Big Think, June 28, 2022: Fermilab’s Don Lincoln explores the possible existence of a fourth neutrino known as “sterile neutrinos.” With the LSND, Mini BooNE and MicroBooNE experiments displaying anomalies from the Standard Model of physics, could this fourth neutrino really exist?
Strategic partnerships help ensure success
From ORNL, June 16, 2022: For its precision linear accelerator components, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Proton Power Upgrade project formed a strategic alliance with Fermilab to fabricate the PPU’s magnets.
Quantum network between two national labs achieves record synch
Quantum collaboration demonstrates in Chicagoland the first steps toward functional long-distance quantum networks over deployed telecom fiber optics, opening the door to scalable quantum computing.
Particle Fever: Where are they now?
The 2013 documentary Particle Fever follows physicists from the start-up of the LHC through the discovery of the Higgs boson. Where are those physicists now?
