Project X

  • U.S. Department of Energy
  • Fermilab

Project X is a proposed proton accelerator complex at Fermilab that would provide the particle physics world with powerful and sensitive tools to explore a new scientific frontier. This facility would provide particle beams to multiple experiments searching for rare and hard-to-detect phenomena that will further our understanding of fundamental physics.

Construction for Project X could begin in 2016 and be completed in 2021.

Events

Winter Workshop on Electric Dipole Moments (EDMs13)

February 13-15, 2013
The objective of this workshop is to provide a pedagogical overview of the theory of electric dipole moments (EDMs) of leptons, nucleons, nuclei, and atoms.

Project X Energy Station Workshop

January 29-30, 2013
The Project X Energy Station Workshop objective is to identify and explore the nuclear energy relevant research and development that would be possible in a Nuclear Energy Station associated with the Project X Linac and identify the design requirements for conducting the research.
