Particle Detectors Subatomic Bomb Squad

The manner in which particle physicists investigate collisions in particle accelerators is a puzzling process. Using vaguely-defined “detectors,” scientists are able to somehow reconstruct the collisions and convert that information into physics measurements. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln sheds light on this mysterious technique. In a surprising analogy, he draws a parallel between experimental particle physics and bomb squad investigators and uses an explosive example to illustrate his points. Be sure to watch this video… it’s totally the bomb.

Robot Rodeo 2013

Sandia National Laboratories hosted the seventh annual Western National Robot Rodeo and Capability Exercise in June 2013. The five-day event is a lively and challenging competition that draws civilian and military bomb squad teams from across the country to see who can most effectively defuse dangerous situations with the help of robots.

From Rodeo to Reality

The Western National Robot Rodeo & CAPEX (Capability Exercise) is a technical competition for military and civilian bomb squads and emergency responders that puts teams through ten to twelve challenging scenarios ranging from operator skill to full mission planning, execution, and TTPs (Tactics, Training, and Procedures). “The goal of the event is to make good robot operators into great robot operators,” Jake Deuel says. Jake Deuel of Sandia National Laboratories co-hosts the event each year with Chris Ory of Los Alamos National Laboratories. This year’s competition was held at Sandia Labs in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
