A schematic view of the T2K INGRID neutrino detector. Out of 14 modules, 7 modules are in a vertical line and 7 in a horizontal. The first neutrino event was observed in the bottom-most module.

On the cover:
As symmetry celebrates its 50th issue, big changes are afoot at Fermilab.
The lab’s Tevatron Collider, once the most powerful particle collider in
the world, is shutting down, and a new project is on the horizon: Project X.
This proposed $1.8 billion accelerator complex would keep Fermilab at
the forefront of high-energy physics, this time at the Intensity Frontier—a realm
in which scientists bring incredible numbers of particles into collision to
search for extremely rare processes with a big physics impact. It’s exactly
the kind of place where discoveries may lie. See “Solving for X”.
