Dark matter is thought to make up around a quarter of the universe, but so far it has eluded detection by all scientific instruments. Scientists know it must exist because of the ways galaxies move and it also explains the large-scale structure of the modern universe. But no-one knows what dark matter actually is.Scientists have been hunting for dark matter particles for decades, but have so far had no luck. At the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held recently in Denver, a new generation of researchers presented their latest tools, techniques and ideas to step up the search for this mysterious substance. Will they finally detect the undetectable? Host: Alok Jha, The Economist's science and technology editor. Contributors: Don Lincoln, senior scientist at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory; Christopher Karwin, a fellow at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center; Josef Aschbacher, boss of the European Space Agency; Michael Murra of Columbia University; Jodi Cooley, executive director of SNOLAB; Deborah Pinna of University of Wisconsin and CERN.Get a world of insights for 50% off—subscribe to Economist Podcasts+If you're already a subscriber to The Economist, you'll have full access to all our shows as part of your subscription.

Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
Einstein's theory of general relativity is distinguished by its singular simplicity and beauty. The Standard Model of Particle Physics, by contrast, is a bit of a mess. So many particles and interactions, each acting somewhat differently, with a bunch of seemingly random parameters. But lurking beneath the mess are a number of powerful and elegant ideas, many of them stemming from symmetries and how they are broken. I talk about some of these ideas with Chris Quigg, who with collaborator Robert Cahn has written a new book on the development of the Standard Model: Grace in All Simplicity.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2024/01/22/263-chris-quigg-on-symmetry-and-the-birth-of-the-standard-model/Support Mindscape on Patreon.Chris Quigg received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of California, Berkeley. He is currently Distinguished Scientist Emeritus at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. Among his awards is the J.J. Sakurai Prize in theoretical particle physics from the American Physical Society. He is also the author of Gauge Theories of the Strong, Weak, and Electromagnetic Interactions.WebsitePublicationsAmazon author pageWikipediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
A Talk by Dr. Robert Jedicke (U of Hawaii)Oct. 11, 2023Near-Earth objects present both an existential threat to human civilization and an extraordinary opportunity to help our exploration and expansion across the solar system. Dr. Jedicke explains that the risk of a sudden, civilization-altering collision with an asteroid or comet has markedly diminished in recent decades -- due to diligent astronomical surveys -- but a significant level of danger persists. At the same time, remarkable strides have been made in advancing technologies that pave the way for a new vision of space exploration – one that involves missions and outposts within the inner solar system fueled by resources extracted from near-Earth asteroids. These objects contain exploitable extraterrestrial resources delivered free to the inner solar system, and they have been naturally preprocessed into objects the ideal size for industrial operations. Robert Jedicke obtained his Ph.D. in experimental particle physics from the University of Toronto and held post-doctoral positions at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and at the University of Arizona's Lunar & Planetary Laboratory. At the University of Hawai`i's Institute for Astronomy for the last 20 years, he managed the development of the Moving Object Processing System for the Pan-STARRS telescope on Maui.

After completing a PhD in cancer biology at the University of Chicago, Illinois, in 2017, Tim Fessenden moved to a laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge to focus on immunology.Fessenden, who is now an editor at the Journal of Cell Biology in New York City, says that alongside adjusting to a new lab culture, he needed to learn new techniques, adding: “I am a lifelong student, someone who always wants to be the dumbest person in the room.”Fessenden is joined by physician-scientist Ken Kosik, and Jennifer Pursley, a particle physicist-turned-medical physicist.Kosik's neuroscience research and collaborations are influenced by his close working proximity to physical scientists. In 2004, he quit a tenured post at Harvard University's Longwood campus in Boston, Massachusetts, moving to a more multi-disciplinary location at the University of California, Santa Barbara.Pursley, who left the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in Batavia, Illinois, in 2010, says of her move to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston: “I walked into this completely new environment — I didn't know anyone. It was a real shock.”This is the fourth episode in a six-part Working Scientist podcast series on moving labs. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dalla Sicilia agli USA. Anna Grassellino lavora oggi al Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory di Chicago, dove dirige un gruppo di ricerca che fa da capofila a un progetto che si propone di rivoluzionare l'informatica e costruire il prototipo di un computer quantistico. Ci parla di magneti, acceleratori di particelle, tecnologie che al di là dei nomi altisonanti hanno una grande influenza, ci spiega, nella nostra vita quotidiana. Perché i computer quantistici saranno migliori di quelli che usiamo attualmente? Perché promettono un vantaggio esponenziale dal punto di vista della velocità di calcolo, cosa che sarà utilissima in particolari campi di applicazione.

Nadie saben con seguridad, pero algunos físicos piensa que para descubrirlo hay que entender 'el lado oscuro'. ¿Qué es la materia oscura y en qué se diferencian de la materia convencional? ¿Qué es la antimateria? ¿Qué es la energía oscura? ¿Por qué la expansión del Universo se está acelerando? ¿Qué es el Gran Atractor? ¿Puede la energía oscura desgarrar el Universo? Para responder a esas interrogantes tuvimos como invitado a Cesar Castromonte, quien es físico por la @unUniversidad Nacional de Ingeniería, además de magister y doctor en Física por el Centro Brasileiro Pesquisas Físicas. Ha trabajado analizando los datos tomados del experimento Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (en Chicago). Realizó post-doctorados en el Centro Brasileiro Pesquisas Físicas, en la University of Rochester y en la Universidad Federal de Goias, actuando en los experimentos de neutrinos del Fermilab.

Scientists in the past few decades have made crucial discoveries about how our cosmos evolved over the past 13.8 billion years. But there remains a critical gap in our knowledge: we still know very little about what happened in the first seconds after the Big Bang. Astrophysicist Dan Hooper revealed new understanding about this mysterious period of time at the beginning of cosmic history with his book At the Edge of Time. Hooper grappled with the extraordinary and perplexing questions that scientists are asking about the origin and nature of our world. Hooper examined how we are using the Large Hadron Collider and other experiments to re-create the conditions of the Big Bang and test promising theories for how and why our universe came to contain so much matter and so little antimatter. He shared insight from the precipice of new discoveries about how dark matter was formed during our universe’s first moments, and how new telescopes are allowing us to lift the veil on the era of cosmic inflation which led to the creation of our world as we know it. Join Hooper for a chance to wrestle with the mysteries surrounding the Big Bang, and an accessible investigation of our universe and its origin. Dan Hooper is a senior scientist and the head of the Theoretical Astrophysics Group at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and a professor of astronomy and astrophysics at the University of Chicago. He is the author of Dark Cosmos and Nature’s Blueprint. Presented by Town Hall Seattle. Recorded live in The Forum on November 8, 2019.
Dr. Dan Hooper is a Senior Scientist and the Head of the Theoretical Astrophysics Group at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Illinois. He is also a Professor in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of Chicago. He holds a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Wisconsin. Dan told me about how his early aspirations as a youth were actually in music. It wasn’t until he took a class as an undergraduate in Relativity that the astrophysics bug bit him. Hard. Dan explained how he landed a post-doc position at Oxford and how he was later hired at Fermilab. Later, we chatted about his interest in the interface between particle physics and cosmology, Dark Matter and what neutrinos can tell us about the early universe. We finished with an overview of his new astrophysics book that explores the mysteries of the origin of the universe.

The Big Bang, Seconds After - Dr. Dan Hooper Smithsonian Associates Inside Science Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show. I'm your host Paul Vogelzang, and this is show number 392. Today's show is brought to you by MintMobile. As part of our Smithsonian Associates, Inside Science series, we're speaking today to Dr. Dan Hooper. Dr. Dan Hooper, senior scientist and head of the Theoretical Astrophysics Group at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. Dr. Hooper is with us today to discuss the discoveries about how our cosmos evolved over the past 13.8 billion years. Knowing full well that there remains a critical gap in our knowledge: we still know very little about what happened in the first seconds after the Big Bang. Dan Hooper tells us how we are using the Large Hadron Collider and other experiments to re-create the conditions of the Big Bang and to address mysteries such as how our universe came to contain so much matter and so little antimatter. Could these tools enable us to discover the nature of dark matter and how it was formed in our universe's first moments?

Father Lawrence Machia, OSB, is a Benedictine monk at St. Vincent College and Archabbey in Latrobe, PA. The public can view his 2019 Society of Catholic Scientists presentation on You Tube. Father Machia’s talk made reference to Galileo’s letter to Benedetto Castelli. Dr. Daniel Vanden Berk is an associate professor of physics at St. Vincent College. Fr. Machia and Dr. Vanden Berk, both very interested in astronomy, have worked together on designing planetarium shows on the St. Vincent campus. They have always seen the complementarity of science and religion, faith and reason, in contrast to many people’s rejection of religion based on supposed conflicts with scientific, rational, experiential learning. Dr. Vanden Berk was intrigued at an early age by the “Cosmos”- series presented on PBS by Carl Sagan, but the program posited a conflict between science and faith. Among Dr. Vanden Berk’s astronomical adventures: working on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. He has worked with the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, processing data captured by the Digital Sky Survey.

Abstract: The National Ignition Facility, sited at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, Calif., is a 192-beam, 1.8-MJ (351 nm) laser designed to compress ~250 µg spheres of deuterium and tritium to thermonuclear ignition. Fuel compression is achieved through an ablative rocket drive mechanism where the outer wall of the fuel shell is ablatively removed by a 300 eV radiation field. The 300 eV field is produced through laser matter interactions at the wall of either a gold or uranium hohlraum surrounding the capsule. Obtaining ignition will depend on controlling several critical aspects of the implosion, including the amount of kinetic energy transferred to the fuel, the internal energy generated within the fuel, the symmetry of the implosion, as well as maintaining the hydrodynamic stability of the fuel as it compresses. Imaging diagnostics provide unique insight into the performance of these implosions, and the NIF has assembled a broad suite of imaging capability, utilizing both X-rays and neutrons to diagnose critical aspects of the implosion process. In this presentation I will review the basic motivation for the inertial confinement fusion experiments taking place at the NIF, as well as a description of the NIF laser and its diagnostic capability, with an emphasis on imaging. This work was performed for the U.S. Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration and by the National Ignition Campaign partners: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, University of Rochester Laboratory for Laser Energetics, General Atomics, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories. Other contributors include Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory; the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Atomic Weapons Establishment, England; and Commissariat à l’Énergie Atomique, France. Gary P. Grim received his B.S. in mathematics from California State University, Chico in 1985, followed by his M.S. in 1992 and Ph.D. in 199) in experimental physics from the University of California, Davis. Grim’s graduate studies were in the field of particle physics, where he studied rare charm mesons decays as a test of electro-weak interaction theory within the standard model of particle physics. During his postdoctoral research in 1995–1999, Grim switched research groups at Davis and was an active participant in the design and construction of several semiconductor-based particle tracking detectors aimed at hadron collider experiments. These efforts included the CDF experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and CMS experiment at CERN. During this time, Grim developed and tested the first data-driven pixel tracking telescope for use in high energy physics. In 2002, Grim joined the Physics Division staff at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. During his tenure at LANL, he has worked on a wide ranging set of projects and problems, including leading the design and construction of the National Ignition Facility neutron imaging diagnostic, as well as being a key player in the construction of a forward pixel detector for use at the PHENIX experiment at the RHIC facility sited at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Grim’s current efforts are focused on analyzing the data being produced by the NIF imaging diagnostics, as well as leading the development of new NIF diagnostic capabilities including the novel prompt-radiochemical assay techniques and gamma-ray imaging capabilities.
Tom Nash Our Particular Universe: Understanding What We Know, What We Don't Know (Yet) See article about the event on Michael Lerner’s blog. Join Michael Lerner in a conversation with physicist Tom Nash in a combination physics tutorial and cosmology exploration… pondering questions such as whether there is one universe or many, whether the universe is alive or inert, and whether life is an accident or part of a cosmic design. Tom helps us understand some challenging, very current, and surprisingly related subjects. These include: The conceptually difficult “Standard Model,” and the Higgs Boson (aka the “God” particle); Stephen Hawkings’s beautiful book The Grand Design about the structure of the universe and the suggestions that there is a multi-universe, of which ours is just one of a huge number; The technically heroic search for gravitational waves. Tom Nash Tom is now an emeritus scientist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, where he spent more than 30 years as an experimental high-energy and astro physicist, a high-performance computer developer, and finally as associate director for Computing and Technology. He is presently a member of the California Institute of Technology group collaborating on the LIGO Gravitational Wave Project. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society.
