While scientists are known for their dedication to their research, crawling on the floor to avoid electrocution for the sake ...

A quartz-lined waveguide kept terahertz light synchronized with relativistic electrons, pointing toward much smaller ...

A multimillion-dollar government project is betting that particle accelerators can "burn" through the world's most dangerous ...

Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really precision tools that use electric fields and magnets to steer tiny beams of matter ...

A beam of electrons crossed just a few millimeters of plasma, then helped trigger an effect that usually belongs to massive research sites. In this case, the light produced fell in the extreme ...

Particle accelerators, also known as particle colliders or atom smashers, have been responsible for some of the most exciting physics findings over the past century, including the discovery of the ...

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced significant funding to scale up promising projects that use Super Intelligence (SI), commonly ...

Misha Glenny and guests discuss the machines that are described as the world’s largest experiments: Particle Accelerators. A ...

Twenty-five feet below ground, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory scientist Spencer Gessner opens a large metal picnic basket. This is not your typical picnic basket filled with cheese, bread and ...

The world’s biggest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), sits in a circular tunnel about one hundred meters beneath the Swiss French border near Geneva. It is huge—some 17 kilometers ...

Scientists have developed a new machine-learning platform that makes the algorithms that control particle beams and lasers smarter than ever before. Their work could help lead to the development of ...
