Scientists recently fired up the world's smallest particle accelerator for the first time. The tiny technological triumph, which is around the size of a small coin, could open the door to a wide range ...
Mark Thomson, the new head of Europe's physics laboratory CERN, voiced confidence Tuesday about raising the billions of ...
Solar flares are among the most violent explosions in our solar system, but despite their immense energy — equivalent to a hundred billion atomic bombs detonating at once — physicists still haven’t ...
Scientists have activated the smallest particle accelerator ever built—a tiny device roughly the size of a coin. This advancement opens new doors for particle acceleration, promising exciting ...
LCLS-II is the new superconducting element of SLAC’s longstanding particle accelerator. It’ll accelerate elections to produce X-rays that are 10,000 times brighter than its predecessor, LCLS (Linac ...
The USA has only two accelerators that can produce 10 billion electron-volt particle beams, and they're each about 1.9 miles (3 km) long. "We can now reach those energies in 10 cm (4 inches)," said ...
