Something dark is lurking in the universe. 👻 We can't see it directly, but we can observe its gravitational effects. So every Halloween, we celebrate scientists' search for the spookiest mystery in physics: dark matter. Happy Halloween and #DarkMatterDay! 🎃

To ensure intense particle beams can be stored in the #ElectronIonCollider, engineers like Abhilash Reghu are scaling up a critical technology — a type of carbon coating that's applied to the inner surfaces of beampipes, preventing unwanted, heat-generating electron clouds.

Conducting four different X-ray imaging techniques would normally take researchers many hours — or even days — at separate instruments. But with this new setup at #NSLSII, researchers accomplished the same experiments in about six hours using one tool. bnl.gov/newsroom/news.php?a=…

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider began smashing atoms in 2000, but its story started much earlier. Proposals solidified in the early 1980s, and construction officially began in 1991. This photo offers a glimpse into #RHIC's underground tunnels during construction that year.
