Dark matter could consist of particles so ultralight, they behave more like waves.
Scientists working on the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment are developing a vertical drift detector. The new technology may open doors to building large neutrino detectors at a lower cost and in a simpler manner.
The international DUNE collaboration is conducting final tests of the components for its first neutrino detector module, to be installed a mile underground in South Dakota. Preparations for ramping up the mass production of these components are underway.
Representatives from science funding agencies from around the world will convene in Lead, South Dakota, the future home of the large particle detector for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.
After years of running her own business, Holly Lett came to Fermilab to help its employees reach their highest career aspirations. Now, her team is revamping online-trainings and spearheading a new leadership class for Fermilab employees.
From New Scientist: Join Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln on April 4 for a presentation on Fermilab: Solving the Mysteries of Matter and Energy, Space and Time. Here he will explain how America’s flagship particle physics facility has taught us so much about our universe and how it works. Pre-registration is required.
Students in the fashion studies department at College of DuPage designed personal protective equipment for SPOT, a dog-like robot that can send data back to researchers from areas that are unsafe for humans due to environmental hazards, such as radiation.
From Big Think, March 24, 2023: CERN’s ForwArd Search ExpeRiment detector proved to be the an ideal detector in searching for extremely high-energy neutrinos. Recently, CERN scientists and researchers used this data to better understand high-energy neutrinos from space. With this new knowledge, astronomers can better understand what happens when neutron stars collide and some of the most spectacular and rarest of cosmic phenomena.
The ATLAS and CMS experiments have observed a process 4,000 times rarer than the production of Higgs bosons.
