When she’s not studying the Cosmic Microwave Background at the South Pole in subzero temperatures, postdoctoral researcher Sasha Rahlin warms up with beach volleyball in Chicago.

Lawrence Berkeley National Lab has passed the startup operations phase and delivered first results of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ), the world’s most sensitive dark matter detector.

In new papers by the CMS and ATLAS Collaborations, physicists detail high-precision results from their latest Higgs boson studies.

Scientists have learned a lot about the Higgs boson in the decade since they discovered it. But intriguing questions remain.

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.

Senior engineering students designed a portable cleanroom and a modular cryomodule mockup for Fermilab’s new accelerator complex upgrade project.

A postdoc on the PIP-II project, Pathak works on beam dynamics and also enjoys riding his bike around Fermilab and admiring the blue sky of the Illinois prairieland.

The CDF experiment at Fermilab measured the mass of the W boson and came up with an answer that no one expected.

Astronomers have unveiled the first image of the supermassive black hole at the center of our own Milky Way galaxy. This result provides overwhelming evidence that the object is indeed a black hole and yields valuable clues about the workings of such giants, which are thought to reside at the center of most galaxies.

The facility, LCLS-II, will soon sharpen our view of how nature works on ultrasmall, ultrafast scales, impacting everything from quantum devices to clean energy.
