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

Fermilab will be sending the world’s most intense high-energy neutrino beam from Illinois to the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in South Dakota — a distance of 800 miles. DUNE scientist David Caratelli explains how the neutrinos will travel from Fermilab to the DUNE detectors at Sanford Underground Research Facility without a tunnel. #DepthsofDiscovery #DUNEcaverns #DUNEscience Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility

To capture elusive neutrinos, the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will build enormous neutrino detectors. The detector modules located in South Dakota at Sanford Underground Research Facility will be one mile underground. DUNE scientist Alexander Booth explains why it's important for DUNE to build these detectors deep underground. #DepthsofDiscovery #DUNEcaverns #DUNEscience

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment is an international flagship experiment to unlock the mysteries of neutrinos. The far detector will be the largest and most technologically advanced liquid-argon neutrino detector in the world, more than 20 times larger than existing detectors of this kind. DUNE scientist David Caratelli explains how the detectors will observe neutrinos. #DepthsofDiscovery #DUNEscience #DUNEcaverns
