  2. Fermilab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermilab

    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.

  3. DØ experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DØ_experiment

    The DØ experiment stopped taking data in 2011, when the Tevatron shut down, [2] but data analysis is still ongoing. The DØ detector is preserved in Fermilab's DØ Assembly Building as part of a historical exhibit for public tours. [3] DØ research is focused on precise studies of interactions of protons and antiprotons at the highest ...

  4. Particle accelerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_accelerator

    The Tevatron (background circle), a synchrotron collider type particle accelerator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), Batavia, Illinois, USA. Shut down in 2011, until 2007 it was the most powerful particle accelerator in the world, accelerating protons to an energy of over 1 TeV (tera electron volts). Beams of protons and ...

  5. Tevatron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tevatron

    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.

  6. Output signal switching device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Output_Signal_Switching_Device

    An output signal switching device (OSSD) is an electronic device used as part of the safety system of a machine.It provides a coded signal which, when interrupted due to a safety event, signals the machine to shut down.

  7. Collider Detector at Fermilab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collider_Detector_at_Fermilab

    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.

  8. John Peoples Jr. - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Peoples_Jr.

    After Leon M. Lederman stepped down from the Fermilab directorship, Peoples became director on July 1, 1989. [5] During Peoples's time as Fermilab's director, the lab increased the Tevatron's luminosity by a factor of 20 between 1990 and 1994, which made it possible for Fermilab's experiments CDF and D0 to discover the top quark. He also ...
