In this 2-minute video, electrical engineer Luciano Elementi and company show us how superconducting cable is wrapped for the Mu2e experiment. Mu2e will search for a previously undiscovered process: a muon converting solely into an electron. The cables will help power the experiment when it comes online.
These international projects, selected during the process to plan the future of U.S. particle physics, are all set to come online within the next 10 years.
Through an initiative that seeks to strengthen the global scientist network, European researchers contribute to the Mu2e muon experiment and Short-Baseline Neutrino Program at Fermilab.
Technicians take on maintenance and upgrades during Fermilab’s annual accelerator shutdown.
Bonventre receives the annual award for his “creative and resourceful contributions” to the Mu2e experiment.
A new cryogenic facility provides a place for superconducting magnet tests before the Mu2e detector is assembled.
On Thursday, August 3, 2017 there will be a series of lectures on the Mu2e FNAL experiment for the Italian Summer Students, but open to all students and interested persons. The lectures are part of the outreach program of the MUSE european project (Muon Campus at FNAL), which contributes to the funding of the european collaborators to the Muon g-2 and Mu2e experiments at FNAL. Thursday, 3 August 2017, Wilson Hall, Dark Side room (WH6NW) 10:00 J. Bono Introduction… More »
Our accelerator team has met all of this year’s beam delivery goals, including those for NOvA, the Short-Baseline Neutrino program, and the new Muon Campus.
When 20 years ago Simone Donati and I crossed as simple acquaintances in the corridors of the CDF trailers, little did we know that we would go on to become the tightest of collaborators.
The Mu2e experimental hall is not your normal building. It has nooks, crannies, feedthroughs and labyrinths to accommodate the S-shaped apparatus and the multiple systems required for safe and efficient operations.
