PIP-II

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.

From Meteoweb, July 26, 2018: Il Progetto PIP-II è un passo cruciale per la realizzazione del futuro esperimento DUNE che sarà realizzato nella struttura sperimentale a lunga distanza (LBNF) progettata dal Fermilab.

A Fermilab accelerator team has designed a device that chops accelerator-generated ion beams under highly demanding conditions.

From WBBM Newsradio: Aug. 6, 2018: Fermilab has preliminary approval for its plan to upgrade its particle accelerator, which uses streams of neutrinos for a wide variety of physics research, by the middle of the next decade.

From Patch, July 30, 2018: Batavia’s Fermilab has just been approved to move forward with an accelerator project that will create more powerful particle beams to “generate an unprecedented stream of neutrinos.”

From Kane County Chronicle, July 31, 2018: The PIP-II accelerator upgrades are integral to the Fermilab-hosted Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, also known as DUNE, which is the largest international science experiment ever conducted on U.S. soil.

From The Beacon-News, Aug. 5, 2018: PIP-II Project Director Lia Merminga discusses the importance of PIP-II to science and the importance of international partnerships to PIP-II.

From Meteoweb, July 26, 2018: Il Fermi National Acceleratory Laboratory (Fermilab), uno dei più importanti centri per la fisica delle particelle degli USA, ha registrato un importante traguardo.

Fermilab’s Lia Merminga talks to Symmetry about her early experiences in STEM and her drive to solve science’s unanswered questions.

PIP-II, a particle accelerator project for generating intense neutrino beams, has achieved an important milestone.
