"Fermilab: Science at Work" is a new 40-minute documentary from Clayton Brown and Monica Long Ross, makers of the PBS film "The Atom Smashers." It follows ten Fermilab scientists as they try to solve the mysteries of the universe. You can watch the entire film online now.

US/LHC

U.S. LHC Participation

Fermilab and other U.S. institutions have made major contributions to the construction of the Large Hadron Collider and its particle detectors, located at CERN in Europe. From the discovery of a Higgs-like particle to the search for new subatomic forces, U.S. Scientists play a major role in research at the LHC.

USCMS

U.S. CMS Collaboration

Fermilab serves as the U.S. Hub for the nearly 1,000 scientists and engineers from U.S. universities and laboratories who work on the CMS experiment at the LHC. From the LHC Remote Operations Center at Fermilab, they can monitor the collisions produced by the machine in Europe.
