Scientists move a step closer to understanding the βcold spotβ in the cosmic microwave background
…quarter of the Southern Hemisphere.” Scientists previously counted the number of galaxies visible in the location of the CMB Cold Spot and found an underdensity of galaxies in that region….
An unexpected result from a dark matter experiment may signal new particles
…dark matter. Scientists with the XENON1T experiment reported data June 17 showing an unexpectedly large number of blips within their detector. Fermilab scientist Dan Hooper is quoted in this piece….
Indian scientists come to Fermilab to assist with PIP-II particle accelerator technology
…infrastructure. As part of the agreement, India will supply components worth $140 million to the PIP-II project. This contribution was even highlighted in this White House statement (see number 10)….
Community and software applications on display at Fermilab quantum science workshop
…the average laptop’s 40 billion bits. But even a small number of qubits gives quantum computers extraordinary potential, because each added qubit doubles the computer’s memory and processing power. Yet…
New accelerator research program at Fermilab sees first beam
…concept. One area that could dramatically change the world of accelerators is the capability for generating ultrahigh-intensity beams. Roughly translated, “intensity” is the number of particles that form a beam….
