A four-year project to produce two HL-ZDCs for one of the CMS collider’s main detectors was approved for funding. The detectors will be fabricated and assembled at KU’s Mechanical Prototyping Lab, tested with high-energy particle beams at Fermilab and installed at CERN for the next phase of physics research at the supercollider.

The SQMS Centre has achieved a significant advance in quantum search algorithms using qudit-based Grover search. This Grover search offers a solution to the limitations of traditional qubit systems, particularly as quantum computers scale beyond simple designs.

Scientists have been testing the limits of the DUNE detectors after they subjected the prototype detector to an extreme 300,000-volt stress trial, before it is installed deep underground in the US.

Northwestern University, University of Chicago and Fermilab scientists have developed a new AI tool that automatically determines where a telescope should point.
