A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and future of particle physics research. Particle physicists have a reputation ...

The vast, sparsely populated Argentinian Pampas would seem ideal for social distancing. In the Mendoza region, the Pierre Auger Observatory near Malargue consists of more than 1,600 car-sized plastic ...

Members of the University of Liverpool’s Particle Physics Research Frontier and accelerator scientists associated with the ...

In this episode we explore the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, a decades-long effort to build the most ambitious particle-physics project ever attempted on American soil. We follow the story ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

SPARC is planned to be the first experimental device ever to achieve a 'burning plasma' -- a self-sustaining fusion reaction in which different isotopes of the element hydrogen fuse together to form ...

Through CU Boulder’s Physics through Evidence, Empowerment through Reasoning (PEER) Physics project, Professor Valerie Otero and her team are working with teachers to provide resources to support ...

Dark matter is supposed to be everywhere, threaded through the Milky Way and outnumbering ordinary matter by a wide margin.

For Cinzia DaVià, collaboration isn’t just a buzzword. It’s the approach she applies to all her professional endeavors. From her contributions to the development of a silicon sensor used in CERN ...

In the era of precision cosmology, research often means big science: large observatories, highly complex instruments, ...
