Introducing: laboratory blogs Quantum Diaries, the home of blogging particle physicists from around the world, started the new year by introducing a new group of bloggers: physics laboratories. Brookhaven, CERN, Fermilab and TRIUMF will be posting regular updates to Quantum Diaries and have already gotten started. Read more on Quantum Diaries

Registration for ALCPG11 is open
Registration for ALCPG11 is open Registration for ALCPG11, the 2011 Linear Collider Workshop of the Americas, is now open. This workshop, jointly organised by the ALCPG and the GDE, will be held on the University of Oregon campus in Eugene from 19-23 March 2011. You will find registration details and options for accommodation on the […]
It’s particle showers in a tungsten hadron calorimeter
Even though last week’s “What is it?” does show recent test results it is not an image of temperature mapping of a cavity, sorry. Guest author and calorimeter expert Frank Simon explains what we really see: The “What is it?” image of last week’s ILC NewsLine is a picture-perfect example of why we now often call […]
From Fermilab Today: Introducing the ICPA: The right tool for the right job
Giorgio Apollinari, head of the Technical Division, wrote this week’s column. Giorgio Apollinari Developing and improving superconducting radio-frequency technology is an important goal for Fermilab. SRF technology allows us to conceive and plan for future accelerators, such as Project X, the ILC or the Muon Collider, or for energy production applications such as Accelerator Driven […]
The Spanish Network for Future Linear Colliders meets in Valencia
The Spanish National Network for Future Linear Colliders met in Valencia, Spain on 25 and 26 October. Representatives from all Spanish groups involved in R&D activities on detectors and accelerators for future colliders, as well as physicists from theory groups, attended the meeting which showed big advancements developed in all the activities of the Spanish […]
Live from Geneva
For the first time in a meeting of this scope, this year’s International Workshop on Linear Colliders in Geneva, Switzerland, brings together researchers from both of the world’s major linear collider projects: the International Linear Collider and the Compact Linear Collider. Organised by the European Committee for Future Accelerators, the conference is held at CERN […]
