Changing physics with the help of electronics

ABC Assembly Inc. contributes its electronics services to the Muon g-2 ring experiment at Fermilab – a possible breakthrough that may shed light on new laws of physics.

Experimental physics and the electronics industry have been a “dream team” for a very long time. From the creation of the Large Hadron Collider (and all of the experiments done there), to the discovery of the Higgs Boson particle, to the observations of the cosmic microwave background – all of these great discoveries and experiments were done with the support of sophisticated electronics for high accuracy measurements, control and other key capabilities.

In its own small way, electronics design and assembly has been an enabling factor in making great experimental physics discoveries possible in the 20th and 21st century.

The most recent of such promising breakthroughs is the Muon experiment at Fermilab and  ABC Assembly Inc. is happy to have been a supporting contributor providing electronics services, even if our role is tiny compared to the monumental work done by the research team of Fermi.

ABC Assembly Inc. lent its expertise and electronics assembly and other services to the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) playing our own small part in what Dr. Chris Polly calls a possible great discovery in modern physics and the team’s “Mars rover landing moment”. The Muon experiment may shed light on new laws of physics that have not yet been discovered, including the secrets of dark matter.

While the team of ABC Assembly Inc.can only admire such scientific breakthroughs as interested observers (we are obviously not experimental physicists), we are proud to have played our small but professional part in what can become scientific history.

We hope to continue providing our support to scientific and cutting-edge tech projects with electronics design, assembly and our dedicated and expert approach to the entire process of complex customer support.
