Researchers have channeled the universes earliest light known as the cosmic microwave background to solve a missing-matter mystery and learn new things about galaxy formation.

The U.S. Department of Energy has formally approved a key milestone in the High-Luminosity LHC Accelerator Upgrade Project being carried out at eight U.S. institutions, including the DOEs Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

A research team with participation by Berkeley Lab physicists has used artificial intelligence to identify more than 1,200 possible gravitational lenses

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energys Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) played a key role in an analysis of data from the worlds largest particle collider that found proof of rare, high-energy particle interactions in which matter was produced from light.

A team of researchers at LBNL (Berkeley Lab) used a quantum computer to successfully simulate an aspect of particle collisions that is typically neglected in high-energy physics experiments.

On the road less traveled
A Black physicist's journey in academia

Borrowing a page from high-energy physics and astronomy textbooks, a team of physicists and computer scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has successfully adapted and applied a common error-reduction technique to the field of quantum computing.

90 Years of Neutrino Science! Berkeley Lab has prepared a list highlighting some of the landmark neutrino experiments and results our scientists have contributed to.

Scientists Say Farewell to Daya Bay Site

The collaboration will continue to analyze its complete dataset to improve upon the precision of findings based on earlier measurements.

A study of archival data from the XMM-Newton and the Chandra X-ray space telescopes found evidence of high levels of X-ray emission from the nearby Magnificent Seven neutron stars, which may arise from the hypothetical particles known as axions.
