Fermilab is building a new linear accelerator! In this video, take a behind the scenes look inside the tunnel that will house the new 800-million-electronvolt linac. The Proton Improvement Plan-II is an essential enhancement to the Fermilab accelerator complex, powering the world’s most intense high-energy neutrino beam on its journey from Illinois to the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in South Dakota. DUNE scientists will use neutrinos to answer some of the most profound questions about our universe. In addition, over the next 50 years, PIP-II will drive a broad physics research program, delivering scientific breakthroughs and likely to reveal surprising answers to questions that are not yet contemplated.
