Neutrinos are very small, neutral subatomic particles that rarely interact with ordinary matter and are thus sometimes ...

Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really precision tools that use electric fields and magnets to steer tiny beams of matter ...

Before the RHIC shut down, it was the only operational particle collider in the U.S. and one of two heavy-ion colliders in the world, the other being the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.

The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...

Physicists are closing in on a strange, hidden influence that does not fit neatly into the four familiar forces of nature, and the search is reshaping how detectors are built and where they are ...

MicroBooNE's results show no evidence for sterile neutrinos, strengthening support for the standard three-flavor neutrino ...

Keeping high-power particle accelerators at peak performance requires advanced and precise control systems. For example, the primary research machine at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

In July 2009, Parade magazine ran an article entitled, "The Race for the Secret of the Universe." It focused on Fermilab, a four-mile-round particle accelerator that resides west of Chicago. The ...
