Scientists are unlocking new secrets of the universe with tiny particles called plasmons. These plasmons allow researchers to ...

After the beam shot through his skull and out just below his nose, Bugorski finished his day's work and went home for the evening.

This early prototype was just 10 cm wide, but Lawrence’s innovation was so impactful that it earned him the 1939 Nobel Prize ...

This tiny accelerator, no larger than a grain of rice, demonstrates that the future of high-energy physics is not just about building bigger machines—but also about making them smaller and more ...

Physicist John Peoples Jr. was the third-ever director of Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory near Batavia, and in his 10 ...

Despite the fact that accelerator operators are essential to keeping an accelerator laboratory afloat, the role is largely unknown outside of physics—even to the people who wind up in the job. “It was ...

New technology The particle accelerator has spent the last three-and-a-half years receiving vital technological upgrades that will enable it to smash beams of particles with record energy of 6.8 ...

In the latest work, the Stanford team demonstrated that their Accelerator on a Chip managed to pass on a maximum of 0.915 kilo–electron volts-worth energy to an electron beam over a very short ...

"On the path to developing accelerators for particle physics, with every passing decade, that research has led to things that have had big impacts on people’s lives," Ryne says.

LRO/GSFC/NASA By Emily Conover June 10, 2021 at 6:00 am - More than 2 years ago If you could peer into a particle physicist’s daydream, you might spy a vision of a giant lunar particle accelerator.

In the 1980s, Dr. Turner was among the scientists who began using the tools of particle physics to study the Big Bang and the evolution of the universe, and using the universe to learn about ...
