Robert Rathbun Wilson Hall. Weston, Illinois, was a community next to Batavia voted out of existence by its village board in 1966 to provide a site for Fermilab. [15]The laboratory was founded in 1969 as the National Accelerator Laboratory; [16] it was renamed in honor of Enrico Fermi in 1974.
Robert Rathbun Wilson (March 4, 1914 – January 16, 2000) was an American physicist known for his work on the Manhattan Project during World War II, as a sculptor, and as an architect of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), where he was the first director from 1967 to 1978.

Wilson Hall at Fermilab, designed by DUSAF and completed in 1973. The former Federal Home Loan Bank Board Building in Washington, D.C., completed in 1977. Max O. Urbahn FAIA (1912–1995) was a German-born American architect in practice in New York City and Connecticut from 1945 until his death in 1995.
Before the Great Hall there was Shadow Lawn, a mansion built on the site in 1902. President Woodrow Wilson stayed there for six weeks in 1916, using it as a “summer White House.” In 1927 the ...
Bonnie T. Fleming is an experimental particle physicist who has held leadership roles in several physics experiments and at Fermilab. Since 2022, she has been Fermilab's chief research officer and deputy director for science and technology. She has also served on the faculty of Yale University and the University of Chicago.
The Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) experimental collaboration studies high energy particle collisions from the Tevatron, the world's former highest-energy particle accelerator. The goal is to discover the identity and properties of the particles that make up the universe and to understand the forces and interactions between those particles.
