Three SLAC Scientists Receive DOE Early Career Research Grants
Zeeshan Ahmed, Frederico Fiuza and Emilio Nanni will each receive about $2.5 million over five years to pursue cutting-edge research into cosmic inflation, plasma acceleration and using terahertz waves to accelerate particles.
Dusting for the Fingerprint of Inflation with BICEP3
A new experiment at the South Pole picks up where BICEP2 left off.
SLAC, Stanford Scientists Play Key Roles in Confirming Cosmic Inflation
Two scientists at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory made key contributions to the discovery of the first direct evidence for cosmic inflation – the rapid expansion of the infant universe in the first trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang.
Physicists Find Evidence of Cosmic Inflation
Researchers from the BICEP2 collaboration have announced the first direct evidence supporting the theory of cosmic inflation. Their data also represent the first images of gravitational waves, or ripples in space-time. These waves have been described as the "first tremors of the Big Bang."
