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 the Fermi Research Alliance LLC (FRA) for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science. FRA is a partnership of the University of Chicago and Universities Research Association Inc., a consortium of 86 research universities. 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

For #NeutrinoDay this year, Fermilab celebrated our favorite particles Sanford Underground Research Facility science festival in Lead, South Dakota. Highlights from the day include a wooden model of one of the components for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment's cryostats, two cryogenic performances from Fermilab's Mr. Freeze and a livestream from one of the DUNE caverns a mile underground! Thanks to all the volunteers! #neutrino #dunescience

#DidYouKnow that the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment is taking shape at Sanford Underground Research Facility, in the same mine where scientists got the first hint that neutrinos weren't adding up? https://lnkd.in/e9sDjk8U In 1968, Ray Davis was the first to detect electron neutrinos produced by the sun. However, his experiment in the Homestake mine only detected one-third the number of solar neutrinos predicted, leading to the “solar neutrino problem.” https://lnkd.in/gup6WX4k

Congratulations to Anna Grassellino, senior scientist at Fermilab and director of the SQMS Center, on winning the prestigious Marisa Bellisario Award! Anna Grassellino has led groundbreaking work in increasing the efficiency of SRF cavities and their use in several novel experiments, ranging from #quantum computing to searching for new particles, which is at the core of the SQMS Center mission. Read the full story below. #MidwestQuantum #QuantumPrairie
A huge congratulations to our very own Anna Grassellino for being honored with the illustrious Marisa Belissario award! This esteemed Italian accolade celebrates women who have achieved extraordinary success across professional, social, cultural, and scientific fields. 🇮🇹 The award citation read by Minister Tajani stated: “Anna Grassellino receives the Bellisario Award for the extraordinary talent, determination and courage that have earned her the international leadership in research, in technologies that will open new scientific horizons. She is an ambassador of the Italian genius in the world and source of inspiration for all girls who aspire to have a STEM career.” https://lnkd.in/gx7bBPkb
