This two-minute video features the PIP-II project, which is an essential upgrade of Fermilab’s particle accelerator complex. It is the first U.S. particle accelerator project with significant contributions from international partners. PIP-II’s high-intensity proton beams will provide a flexible platform for the long-term future of the Fermilab accelerator complex and the U.S. accelerator-based particle physics program. It enables the scientific program for the international, Fermilab-hosted Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment and Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility.

Two videos of Secretary of Energy Rick Perry’s Jan. 9 Fermilab visit are now available on the Fermilab YouTube channel. This 3-minute video gives an overview of the experimental areas and facilities that Perry toured. A 45-minute video of the Jan. 9 all-hands meeting with Perry is also online.
