So long, SciPhi-XVI! We recently turned off one of our trusty supercomputers, which once ranked among the world's 500 fastest and most efficient, for the final time after nearly a decade of service to the theoretical physics community. 🖥️⚛️

Born on this day in 1885: Niels Bohr. In 1913, he proposed that electrons travel in quantized "stationary state" orbits around the nucleus. This model explains why atoms don't simply collapse. Bohr received the 1922 Physics Nobel.

Tech transfer in action! 🤝 We've teamed up with Canary Instruments to bring a lab-developed radiation sensor to the emerging fusion energy market. Our inventors' subsurface monitor is a patented fusion safety solution born from nuclear physics research.

Another step toward bringing MOLLER to life in Hall A. Our team recently reviewed progress on the hardware and systems that will help measure the electron’s weak charge with unprecedented precision and test the Standard Model. Take a look BTS.

These glowing shapes aren’t abstract art. They’re lead-tungstate crystals for the EIC’s ePIC detector. More than 1,000 are now at Jefferson Lab for testing before they help measure the energy of beam-scattered electrons.

We don’t always find what we expect when we look inside matter. The GlueX Collab set out to find one exotic particle candidate and instead found evidence of two others.
