Fermilab is America's particle physics and accelerator laboratory.
About us
Fermilab is America's premier particle physics and accelerator laboratory. Collaborating with scientists from around the world, we perform pioneering research, operate world-leading particle accelerators and experiments, and develop technologies for science in support of U.S. industry. Fermilab works on the world's most advanced particle accelerators and digs down to the smallest building blocks of matter. We also probe the farthest reaches of the universe, seeking out the nature of dark matter and dark energy. Fermilab's 1,750 employees include scientists and engineers from all around the world, and we collaborate with more than 20 countries on physics experiments based in the U.S. and elsewhere. Located in Batavia, Illinois, Fermilab is managed by Fermi Forward Discovery Group for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science. Nestled on 6,800 acres in the beautiful Fox Valley, Fermilab’s campus setting offers an informal and stimulating environment with a long history and promising future committed to education, the environment and, of course, world-leading research in particle physics. Join the excitement that comes from discovering the mysteries of the universe! For information on joining the Fermilab team please visit - http://wdrs.fnal.gov/employ/index.html

🌐 Happy World Quantum Day 2025! Today, we recognize a field that is changing how we understand and shape the world: Quantum Science. At Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), quantum research is advancing fast, thanks to the talent, dedication, and vision of our leadership and staff across the laboratory. From early-career researchers to senior scientists, engineers to administrators, and everyone in between, our people are what make this possible. Special shoutout to the incredible teams at: 📍 The Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center (SQMS Center) — where we’re building some of the most coherent quantum systems in the world, working to create more powerful and reliable quantum computers and sensors. 📍 The Emerging Technologies Directorate — where innovation meets scale, and where partnerships, infrastructure, and new ideas come together to build what’s next. This work isn’t just about physics — it’s about potential: discoveries, transformative technologies, and paving the path for tomorrow’s scientists and engineers. “At SQMS, we’re not just developing quantum technologies — we’re building a collaborative ecosystem where national labs, universities, and industry come together to accelerate discovery. It’s an exciting time to be working in quantum.” — Dr. Silvia Zorzetti, QIS Ecosystem Thrust Leader, SQMS Center 🌀 World Quantum Day (April 14) is a global celebration of quantum mechanics — the foundation of technologies that allow us to probe the building blocks of life and nature, understand the limits of space and time, develop new tools for exploring the universe, and power the technologies of the future. To everyone at Fermilab and across the quantum community: thank you for turning big ideas into real breakthroughs! #IYQ2025 #WorldQuantumDay #Fermilab #SQMS #QuantumScience #EmergingTechnologies #URA #FutureOfScience #URASTEM #DOE
