Fermilab gets ready to upgrade accelerator complex for more powerful particle beams
β¦neutrino beams generated from particle accelerators to large, stories-high detectors. The greater the number of neutrinos sent to the detectors, the greater the chances the detectors will catch them, andβ¦
New computing algorithms expand the boundaries of a quantum future
β¦a superposition of four possible states,β Shyamsundar said. The number of accessible states grows exponentially with the number of qubits used. Seems powerful, right? Itβs a huge advantage when approachingβ¦
Caltech and JPL launch hybrid high rate quantum communication systems
β¦and demonstrate both concepts, including a free-space, municipal quantum link between JPL and Caltech, in 2020-21. They will also establish a space-based quantum optical connection between the Caltech-JPL quantum networkβ¦
Scientists repurpose MRI magnet for new discoveries

Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility pre-excavation work is in full swing
Unlocking the mysteries of neutrinos in order to get a clearer picture of the universe and understand why we are here at all, is a monumental undertaking. However, before theβ¦
Excavation of huge caverns for DUNE particle detector is underway
Around a mile below the surface in South Dakota, construction crews are hard at work excavating around 1,000 tons of rock per day. Their goal is to make room forβ¦
First major superconducting component for new high-power particle accelerator arrives at Fermilab
β¦After the beam leaves the PIP-II linac, it will continue down any of a number of paths, charging through Fermilabβs accelerators and eventually smashing into a block of material. Theβ¦
Crews create a blast to take the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment to the next stage
