Everything you need to know about Fermilab. Fermilab recruits veterans for VetTech internship program. Exploring 7 billion light years of space with the Dark Energy Survey.
Resources for:. Public events. November 19 p. December 5 1 p. More Events. Fleming says there are similarities between the data Fermilab is collecting here, feet below the surface of the Earth, and the experiments done by astronauts. More than 4, scientists work at the lab. Lockyer says fundamental scientific research benefits society, often in unexpected ways. And the seminal paper on using protons for cancer therapy was written by the first director of Fermilab.
Even the now-defunct Tevatron inspired the design of superconductors and critical parts of magnetic resonance imaging machines or MRIs. The edge of possibility now is the DUNE experiment, which is scheduled to be fully operational in Fermilab was founded in near Batavia, Illinois, and has a rich and varied history. Find out more about our story, from our earliest directors to our most important discoveries, and see photographs from every era on our history pages.

Fermilab's vision and mission Fermilab is America's particle physics and accelerator laboratory. We strive to: lead the world in neutrino science with particle accelerators lead the nation in the development of particle colliders and their use for scientific discovery advance particle physics through measurements of the cosmos Our mission is to drive discovery by: building and operating world-leading accelerator and detector facilities performing pioneering research with national and global partners developing new technologies for science that support U.
About 2, researchers from 44 countries collaborate on experiments at Fermilab, keeping the United States at the leading edge of the international field of particle physics.
Scientists from Fermilab and other U. They now are upgrading the LHC experiments to take data at higher energy. Using the cosmos as a laboratory, Fermilab scientists explore dark matter and dark energy, which constitute 96 percent of the universe. The engineering process can be dynamic and fluid at the laboratory, involving frequent interaction between engineers and their clients. The development of specifications can begin as a discussion between scientific staff and the individual engineer or engineers and can evolve into a formal, detailed request.
Fermilab engineers make scientific dreams and what-ifs a reality by providing safe, cost-effective and reliable engineering designs. Research creates a lot of data. Gathering, storing, analyzing and interpreting these data requires experts and the right tools. Fermilab is home to one of the largest tape robotic systems available today and provides more than petabytes of storage capability.
