We're an @ENERGY Lab that delivers discovery science and transformative technology to power and secure America's future. Home to #RHIC #NSLSII #CFNatBrookhaven
- Meet Frank Rathman, a scientist in the #ElectronIonCollider Detector Systems Group who specializes in polarization. The EIC will be the world’s first polarized electron-proton collider, helping researchers solve the longstanding question of where the proton gets its spin.
- Thank you for visiting us today to explore innovation and the environment at #CFNatBrookhaven and @NWS! 🔬🔋🌳⛅ Join us on Sept. 15 for this summer's final open house tour, Fascinating Physics at the Superconducting Magnet Division and the Tandem Van de Graaff. ⚛️
- With the fast “shutter speed” of @SLAClab's light source, our physicists created the first-ever movies of local atomic movement 🎥⚛️, like that which occurs when #quantum materials transition between a metal and an insulator. @CUSEAS @NatureMaterials
- #RHIC has collected proton-proton data in many previous runs, but Run 24 is the first using recent detector upgrades at the planned collision energy — 200 billion electron volts.
- This new materials characterization technique acts like a navigation app, showing the atomic “route” between two material phases.📍⚛️ @SLAClab @CUSEAS @NatureMaterials #QuantumMaterials #MaterialsScience
- These stunning images capture the collisions of cosmic rays as they stream through the STAR detector at #RHIC. See more: go.usa.gov/xdyfk
- We are excited to welcome theoretical physicist JoAnne Hewett as the next director of Brookhaven National Laboratory.
- Do you know what's inside a proton?
- For the first time, scientists @CERN have observed Higgs bosons decaying into bottom quarks—a major discovery.
- Congrats to senior physicist Mary Bishai for being awarded a 2024 @doescience Distinguished Scientist Fellowship! 🥳 The recognition celebrates her #neutrino research and mentorship of young scientists. #ParticlePhysics #WomenInSTEM @DUNEScience
- 20 years in the making: Results from the g-2 experiment at @Fermilab support findings from Brookhaven’s earlier experiment, pointing towards new physics.
- Meet Vanessa Sanders, the first African American woman in the U.S. to earn a Ph.D. in radiochemistry. At Brookhaven, Sanders makes isotopes to detect and treat diseases.
- An international team of physicists is using supercomputers to understand the balance between matter and antimatter in the universe.
