LSST Will Capture Unprecedented View of Night Sky

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.

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

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.

A determined volunteer gives an old detector new life as the centerpiece of a cosmic ray exhibit.

Together, three experiments, two with major SLAC contributions, will search for a variety of types of dark matter particles.

Two dark matter hunters with decades of experience between them are turning SLAC into their base of operations for LZ, the next big dark matter search.

Efforts are already underway to ensure that the data the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope  collects will be ready to be mined for scientific gold.

The 30-ton MicroBooNE detector, the cornerstone of Fermilab’s short-baseline neutrino program, will see neutrinos this year.

The Open Science Grid enables faster, more efficient analysis of LHC data—and also contributes to advancements in fields from geology to medicine.

A new result from the Large Hadron Collider strengthens the case that the Higgs interacts with both types of particles in the Standard Model.

Students estimate their way through pop culture problems to learn a life skill.
