Welcome new CLASSE Researcher and Faculty, Jennet Dickinson!

Visiting students from across the country came to Cornell this June to experience life in advanced scientific research and engineering as part of the summer programs hosted by the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based ScienceS and Education (CLASSE) and the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS). 

The Department of Energy has chosen Cornell and three partner institutions to establish the new DOE Tigner Traineeship in Accelerator Science program, funding the program with a $4.4 million grant.

CLASSE and startup xLight.inc are collaborating to revolutionize semiconductor chip manufacturing with cutting-edge particle accelerator technology. Utilizing the unique capabilities of CLASSE expertise and the CBETA accelerator, this collaboration aims to create new extreme ultraviolet light sources for advanced microchip production, significantly enhancing efficiency and sustainability in the industry.

The new Simons Observatory in Chile’s Atacama Desert may soon answer the great scientific question of what happened in that tiny fraction of a second after the Big Bang.

The newly assembled Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST), nearly the size of a five-story building, was unveiled April 4 at an event in Xanten, Germany.

Cornell astronomers Michael Niemack and Lisa Kaltenegger provide insight in to what to expect from the total solar eclipse that will pass through the United States on April 8 this year.

Abby Crites, a cosmologist at the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based ScienceS & Education (CLASSE), who is building telescope cameras to peer at some of the universe’s earliest light ever created, sheds some light on how we can make the most of this celestial phenomenon happening right in our ‘backyard.’

Cornell, in collaboration with other U.S. universities, has been awarded $25 million from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for another five years of research at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland.
