…project manager. “That means lots of particles at high energy and frequently. To increase the power, we need to be able to increase the number of particles right from beginning.”…

…of the argon tanks. But when you’re measuring a limited number of electrons, even the slightest amount of electronics noise can mask the signal you’re looking for. The easiest way…

…I’m a staff physicist. I wear a number of different hats. I’m a theoretical physicist, and I do a lot of computation as well. The main bread and butter of…

…number previously known and adding to those identified by the earlier Sloan Digital Sky Survey, another project where Fermilab played a key role. These tiny satellite galaxies can contain hundreds…

…is Fermilab’s strongest partner country, with the largest number of collaborators, students and staff members of any nation outside the United States. It is also Fermilab’s second-largest international user community…

…the muon’s magnetic moment. If we can both measure and predict this number to ultra-high precision, we can test whether the Standard Model of Elementary Particles is complete. Muons are…

…of the Fermilab family. We look forward to continuing world leadership in high energy physics at this wonderful laboratory.” Over the last 20 years, a large number of experiments worldwide…

…flagship particle accelerator delivered a 700-kilowatt proton beam over one hour at an energy of 120 billion electronvolts. The Main Injector accelerator provides a massive number of protons to create…

…include the force of gravity and to explain dark matter. The energies and number of proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron allow Fermilab scientists to look for supersymmetric particles that are…

…and theoretical inputs in the context of the Standard Model. “The number of improvements and extra checking that went into our result is enormous,” said Ashutosh V. Kotwal of Duke…
