Sensors designed and created at SLAC could help a proposed satellite mission map the X-ray emissions of galaxies with unprecedented precision.

The reanalysis considered new types of particle collisions and how dark matter particles interact with the Earth. 

They’ll work on experiments searching for dark matter and physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics to push our understanding of what makes up the universe.

The first pair of towers are now at the Ontario facility, where they'll further the hunt for dark matter particles.

The Stanford Board of Trustees held its first meeting of the 2022-23 academic year Oct. 17-18. Trustees toured the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and met the new dean of the Doerr School of Sustainability, among other matters.

Edelen draws on machine learning to fine tune particle accelerators, while Kurinsky develops dark matter detectors informed by quantum information science.

The SLAC/Stanford scientists are among 120 new members of an organization that advises the nation on science and technology issues.

Early-career physicist Jonathan LeyVa helps build one of the world’s most sensitive dark matter detectors.

These projects, selected during the process to plan the future of US particle physics, are all set to come online within the next 10 years.
