The DUNE project hopes to learn more about these "ghost particles," which are difficult to study. To do so, the project will beam neutrinos about 800 miles between Illinois and South Dakota. Nearly ...

Experimental particle physicists working at the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory have found ...

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

But scientists must clear many hurdles before large-scale quantum computing and networking are practical. To take on that challenge, Fermilab is part of the Chicago Quantum Exchange — a collaboration ...

Scientists sometimes make bold claims about where their research might lead, but the most weighty assertions are usually scaled back or forgotten entirely as new data becomes available. Several years ...

This discovery is important because it ruled out a major possibility for new physics beyond the Standard Model.

The prototype of a novel particle detection system for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment successfully recorded its first accelerator neutrinos. In a major step for the ...

Hints of a new fundamental interaction are starting to look less like statistical ghosts and more like a pattern that refuses ...

Scientists, local officials and national representatives gathered Monday at Fermilab in Batavia for a ribbon cutting to announce the lab's newest facility, one of the largest quantum research labs in ...

MINNEAPOLIS -- A long-elusive key to understanding the universe may have been discovered a half-mile below the Iron Range. Scientists announced last week they believe they have detected evidence of ...

In a major step for the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, scientists have detected the first neutrinos using a DUNE prototype particle detector at the U.S. Department of Energy’s ...
