In September, DES will make data collected in its first season freely available to researchers.

A team of scientists generated a giant cosmic simulation—and now they're giving it away.

Brian Greene welcomes the Internet to physics class with World Science U.

Laser-timing Tool Works at the Speed of Electrons

Last year, a monster magnet set out from Brookhaven National Lab on an epic trek by land and sea to Fermilab, where it will serve as the heart of a search for evidence of new subatomic particles. Last month, researchers...

LSST Will Capture Unprecedented View of Night Sky

The Higgs boson could be the tool that leads scientists to the next big discovery.

With two SLAC researchers in the lead, an analysis of the enigmatic Fermi bubbles has narrowed down the number of possibilities for their origin, but hasn't completely solved the puzzle.

DOE-funded Program Benefits Companies, the Lab and Society

Photon science, a spin-off of particle physics, has returned to its roots for help developing better, faster detectors.

Researchers have taken a big step toward accomplishing what battery designers have been trying to do for decades – design a pure lithium anode.

Step on a scale and you’ll get a quick measure of your weight. Weighing galaxy clusters, groups of hundreds or thousands of galaxies bound together by gravity, isn’t so easy. But scientists have many ways to do it.
