Upgrading switches in WH, Floor 11 Tuesday, Aug. 3

August 2, 2021

WHAT ARE WE DOING? Computing is upgrading the software for two switches (s-access-wh11ne-1 and s-access-wh11nw-1) located on Floor 11 of Wilson Hall. WHEN WILL THIS OCCUR? Tuesday, Aug. 3; 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. WHAT IS THE IMPACT TO YOU? These switches will reboot and cause a temporary outage for about 10 minutes. One switch will be rebooted at a time. WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO? If you encounter any issues .... More

Tractricious holds rising sun

August 2, 2021

A photo of an orange sun right above a large vertical sculpture in front of a blue building, pinkish hazy sky behind.

On the morning of July 19, an orange sun glows above — and seemingly inside — Tractricious.

Changing a name without forfeiting credit

July 30, 2021

Illustration of Hello there! My name is ... name tag.

A group of U.S. national laboratories, including Fermilab; publishers; journals and other organizations, is making it easier for researchers to update their names on past publications.

Railroad buffers and pioneer cemeteries help restore prairies at Fermilab

July 30, 2021

A prairie flower grows amid prairie grass.

Vestiges of pre-settlement prairies play a vital role in creating habitat for native plant and wildlife species, and the ecology department at Fermilab is tapping into the diversity of its own remnant prairies.

Superposition

July 30, 2021

Photo of a side of a concrete building, tight around a blue door. On the door, one sign that says "Do Not Enter" and below it, another that says "Entrance."

On July 2, accessing the Industrial Building that hosts quantum computing can leave one perplexed. The door is an entrance and the door is not an entrance.

Rep. Bill Foster shed light on how the bill fits into a broader Congressional strategy to boost U.S. investments in science and research, and what’s to come for the National Lab Caucus.

From Next Gov, July 26, 2021: Did you know Illinois Rep. Bill Foster is the only PhD physicist in Congress? Recently, he proposed additional funding for the Restore and Modernize Our National Laboratories Act of 2021. He worked at Fermilab for over two decades and said, “the labs have led the way not only in developing breakthrough technologies—but also in commercializing them.”

Published research name change transgender

From the New York Times, July 28, 2021: On Wednesday, a group of laboratories including Fermilab and major scientific publishers, announced an agreement that aims to simplify the process of applying new names to old papers for transgender scientists by shifting much of the administrative labor from the researcher to the laboratory.

Scientist Brian Nord receives DOE award to accelerate AI use in cosmology

July 29, 2021

Portrait of a man with dark hair and a short beard and mustache wearing glasses, a brown corduroy jacket, a red and blue plaid shirt. His hands are interlaced on the table in front of him. In the lower left corner, the keyboard of a laptop peeks out. He is in front of a starry background.

What if human analysis, combined with machine learning, could advance the study of the universe? The U.S. Department of Energy awarded Fermilab scientist Brian Nord a $2.5 million Early Career Research Award to explore that possibility. Nord has envisioned a new hybrid data-analysis method to undertake the project. It integrates the strengths of artificial intelligence and interpretations of statistics in ways that could potentially advance the studies of cosmology.

Blue heron by MI-60

July 29, 2021

Photo of a heron from behind. It looks to the left. It stands in green grass at the edge of an embankment.

On July 14, a blue heron peeks out from the grasses across from MI-60 by the cooling pond.

New effort will help trans researchers update their names in published works

From NBC News, July 28, 2021: Read more about how Fermilab is committed to the effort to help reduce barriers for trans researchers, coordinated by Berkeley Lab. This new partnership was announced Wednesday among all of the Department of Energy’s 17 U.S. national laboratories and many prominent publishers, journals and other organizations in scientific publishing that will streamline the name change request process in past published papers for researchers.
