In addition to his work at Fermilab, Peoples managed the shutdown of Superconducting Super Collider between 1993 and 1994, served as chairman of the International Committee for Future Accelerators, a working group of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, from 1993 to 1997, [6] and was director of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey from June 1998 to June 2003.
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), located in Batavia, Illinois, near Chicago, is a United States Department of Energy national laboratory specializing in high-energy particle physics. Fermilab's Main Injector, two miles (3.3 km) in circumference, is the laboratory's most powerful particle accelerator. [2]
In order to provide 1.2 MW of protons to LBNF, the second phase of the Proton Improvement Project ("PIP II"), which will increase proton delivery from the Fermilab accelerator chain by 60%, must be completed. [17] The cost of this Fermilab upgrade as of 2022 is $1.28B. [18] Thus, the PIP II and DUNE Phase I combined costs exceed $4B.
The Tevatron was a circular particle accelerator (active until 2011) in the United States, at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (called Fermilab), east of Batavia, Illinois, and was the highest energy particle collider until the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) was built near Geneva, Switzerland.
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.

SCRAM button at the Experimental Breeder Reactor I in Idaho. Sometimes the switch will have a flip cover to prevent inadvertent operation. A scram or SCRAM is an emergency shutdown of a nuclear reactor effected by immediately terminating the fission reaction.
In fact, the first two of those three summers, I lived on site, in the Fermilab Village, so I spent nearly 24 hours every day on the lab grounds. I've never heard of anybody living underground here. Also, nobody says "The Fermilab". It is just "Fermilab", or "Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory".-- Jon Wilson It's not true at all.
