Machine Learning (ML) algorithms are found across all scientific directorates at SLAC, with applications to a wide range of tasks including online data reduction, system controls, simulation, and analysis of big data.

The collaboration is searching for dark matter particles with masses smaller than ten times the mass of the proton.

The Fundamental Physics Directorate brings together scientists and technologies that support national priorities in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology to explore the basic particles and forces that knit the cosmos together.
