DUNE scientists observe first neutrinos with prototype detector at Fermilab

Collaborating at 40,000 feet

Phillipe Galvez wasn't even supposed to be on the flight. After a delay of his original flight, from Los Angeles to Frankfurt, he was placed on a flight to Munich.

ILC organization

Planning designing, and funding the proposed International Linear Collider (ILC), a 40-kilometer-long electron-positron collider costing billions of dollars, will require global participation and global organization.

Collisions galore

In May, Fermilab accelerator experts began to speculate about when the Tevatron collider would hit the inverse femtobarn mark, a measure of the gazillions of collisions produced since March 2001.

Researching the ILC

Research papers are traditionally written about data gathered in an experiment. However, research papers are also published before an experiment has even begun, and the International Linear Collider is an example.

Tied with reed

What do a 200-year-old thatched-roof house and a modern high-energy-physics laboratory have in common?

Postcards from the terascale

In February, the Department of Energy's Office of Science and the National Science Foundation asked the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel "to form a committee to write a document" that addresses the synergies and complementarities of the Large Hadron Collider, now under constructi

Busloads of new Stanford graduates and their families admired the field of golden grass on SLAC's eastern-most hill on a sunny Saturday in May. But their stunned tour guides looked in dismay as they sought 50 bright red balloons.

Global ILC efforts

Designing the International Linear Collider is a global enterprise. Physicists and accelerator experts from around the world are collaborating to design the approximately 25-mile-long machine.
