Fermilab is America's particle physics and accelerator laboratory.
About us
Fermilab is America's premier particle physics and accelerator laboratory. Collaborating with scientists from around the world, we perform pioneering research, operate world-leading particle accelerators and experiments, and develop technologies for science in support of U.S. industry. Fermilab works on the world's most advanced particle accelerators and digs down to the smallest building blocks of matter. We also probe the farthest reaches of the universe, seeking out the nature of dark matter and dark energy. Fermilab's 1,750 employees include scientists and engineers from all around the world, and we collaborate with more than 20 countries on physics experiments based in the U.S. and elsewhere. Located in Batavia, Illinois, Fermilab is managed by Fermi Forward Discovery Group for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science. Nestled on 6,800 acres in the beautiful Fox Valley, Fermilab’s campus setting offers an informal and stimulating environment with a long history and promising future committed to education, the environment and, of course, world-leading research in particle physics. Join the excitement that comes from discovering the mysteries of the universe! For information on joining the Fermilab team please visit - http://wdrs.fnal.gov/employ/index.html

We thank U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Secretary Chris Wright for visiting Fermilab last week! “It was an honor to have Secretary Wright visit Fermilab to see how we serve today as the neutrino capital of the world to advance scientific innovation, and our work underway to ensure Fermilab contributes to groundbreaking discoveries into the future." — Fermilab Interim Director Young-Kee Kim Learn more about Secretary Wright's visit at: https://lnkd.in/gniTXtNW

#ICYMI: At the dawn of the universe, matter and antimatter were created in equal amounts. If nature had played fair, they should have annihilated each other completely, leaving nothing behind—but instead, matter prevailed, and we are here to tell the tale. The answer to the origin of this cosmic imbalance might be hidden in the behavior of subatomic particles called neutrinos, and the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, a future-generation experiment hosted at Fermilab, is designed to unravel this mystery. This video highlights the challenges of capturing neutrinos and shows how insights from the MicroBooNE experiment are helping to pave the way toward solving one of the greatest puzzles of our universe.

Fermilab’s Muon g-2 collaboration has given its final word on the magnetic moment of the muon, with the new measurement agreeing closely with a revised Standard Model (SM) prediction. One of the most intriguing anomalies in particle physics is therefore severely undermined, but not yet definitively resolved. Read more: https://lnkd.in/egGnZKkP
