The Large Hadron Collider’s ATLAS detector measures the electrical pulses generated by particle collisions. Its vat of ultra-cold argon captures an electronic trace of every particle that passes ...
In 2024, the T2K Collaboration started to collect new neutrino data following several upgrades to the experiment that included new types of detectors. One of these, called SuperFGD, has a mass of ...
A collaboration of scientists tested next-generation superconducting microwire single photon detectors (SMSPDs) at Fermilab to further particle physics research. A team of researchers from the U.S.
Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate particle detectors, and they have found the optimal nanowire size for high detection ...
UC Davis students have built a demonstration prototype for a dark matter detector and installed it at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, Switzerland. If the demonstration is succesful it could lead to ...
Prototyping is an indispensable step in the development of particle physics experiments like DUNE and projects like PIP-II. When complete, the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, or DUNE, will be ...
