Using detectors chilled to near absolute zero, from a vantage point half a mile below ground, physicists of the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search today (November 12) announced the launch of a quest that could lead to solving two mysteries that may turn out to be one and the same: the identity of the dark matter that pervades the universe, and the existence of supersymmetric particles predicted by particle physics theory.

With the completion of its hundredth surface detector, the Pierre Auger Observatory, under construction in Argentina, this week became the largest cosmic-ray air shower array in the world. Managed by scientists at the Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, the Pierre Auger project so far encompasses a 70-square-mile array of detectors that are tracking the most violent-and perhaps most puzzling- processes in the entire universe.
Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory are offering a special “Antimatter Sunday” on November 2, at 1 p.m.
Continuing almost thirty years of successful prairie reconstruction, the Department of Energy’s Fermilab invites neighbors and friends to help harvest prairie flower seeds.
The Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory offers visitors a special program on Sunday, October 5, at 1 p.m.
With more than 25 percent of the vehicles in its fleet now equipped to run on alternative fuels, the Department of Energy’s Fermilab is well along the road to reaching the federally mandated goal of a 20 percent reduction in fossil fuel use by FY 2005.
After a long summer break, it is time to resume Fermilab’s increasingly popular Virtual Ask-a-Scientist program.
The directors of nine world particle physics laboratories have come to Fermilab to discuss future research projects and the evolution of the field into a model for science without international boundaries.
