Can more electricity make a magnet stronger? We built an electromagnet using a nail, wire and batteries — then tested how many paperclips it could lift at different voltages. Try it yourself and see how your results compare. youtu.be/m2awrPmvJ8g?si…

Colin Gleason, former Jefferson Lab postdoc and Union College alum, helped share the first GlueX data at APS. Now he’s reflecting on his path into physics, the best advice he ever got, and the one thing he can’t live without. union.edu/news/stories/2…

Fall SULI and CCI applications are due May 21. If you're a college student looking for hands-on research experience, apply now and spend the semester alongside our leading science experts and working together to advance scientific impact and discovery. science.osti.gov/wdts/suli

The powdered wings of a butterfly remind us that symmetry is a common feature in nature, holding true even down to the smallest bits of matter. But not always. Now, one broken symmetry is helping nuclear physicists learn more about the proton. Mississippi State jlab.org/news/releases/…

At -196°C, liquid nitrogen flash-freezes water molecules inside a flower. The structure stays intact, until pressure causes it to shatter. Watch the demo. No CGI. Just physics. youtu.be/Gz3lrLoW0og?si…

Forty years ago this month, Hermann Grunder became Jefferson Lab's first director. Grunder championed the efficient, powerful superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) technology, and our CEBAF accelerator became the world's first large-scale SRF particle accelerator in the world!

It was a big day at our Low Energy Recirculator Facility, we recently swapped out two cryomodules for full-performance testing. Next stop: SLAC and the LCLS-II-HE project, a collab to enhance the capabilities of the world's most powerful X-ray free-electron laser.

Fall SULI and CCI apps are due today by 5 p.m. EDT! Want to work state-of-the-art tools, learn from top mentors, and build your future in STEM? This is your moment. science.osti.gov/wdts

What if your particle accelerator could warn you before it shut down? We’re using AI to predict faults, reduce radiation & improve reliability — helping scientists make the most of every second of beamtime. jlab.org/news/releases/…

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We remember their courage, dedication, and commitment to protecting our nation. In observance, Jefferson Lab is closed on Monday, May 26.

What holds matter together? We just made a first-of-its-kind measurement revealing how gluons behave inside atomic nuclei. This breakthrough brings us closer to solving a decades-old mystery. bit.ly/43xS7rd

Meet Christine Fragapane, Senior Project Coordinator for Jefferson Lab’s Electron Ion Collider. She sees convergence as the key to progress and brings people, timelines and ideas together to keep our science moving forward. jlab.org/people/Christi…

Hands-on learning you can eat? Yes, please. Eric Goff from @NNPS_CarverES uses frosting and graham crackers to bring plate tectonics to life in the classroom. Science has never been so sweet.

Long before the James Webb Space Telescope launched, our cryo team collaborated with NASA to ensure it could withstand the coldest temperatures of space. That prep paid off. Webb is now sending back images like this and reshaping how we see the universe. go.nasa.gov/4jtAxL2

This summer, more than 40 students and faculty from across the country are taking part in hands-on research at our world class U.S. Department of Energy National Lab. Together, they're part of six STEM development programs hosted at @Jlab_News. education.jlab.org/indexpages/pro…

Vinegar and baking soda produce carbon dioxide, a gas heavier than air. Trap that gas in a bowl and blow in a soap bubble. Will it float on top or fall through? It all comes down to density and buoyant force. bit.ly/4mM8EAD

Attention Hampton Roads: We will be conducting our monthly tornado warning siren test at 10:30 a.m. today. No need to take cover if you hear it.
