China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator has reshaped the global race ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...

Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of California, Los ...

Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I have found in a new research project. The way that intense X-rays are ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a massive scientific experimental facility at the European Organization for Nuclear Research ...

Whenever SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's linear accelerator is on, packs of around a billion electrons each travel together at nearly the speed of light through metal piping. These electron ...

Particle accelerators are crucial tools in a wide variety of areas in industry, research and the medical sector. The space these machines require ranges from a few square meters to large research ...

CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron will turn 50 in 2026—and it has a resonant “ghost.” Using mathematics, physicists measured and modeled how these resonant lines intersect. Modeling a 3D shape over time ...

Texas A&M University professor Peter McIntyre and his colleagues want to build a particle accelerator around the rim of the Gulf of Mexico in order to discover the most fundamental building blocks of ...

Advanced photonics and techniques from the microchip industry are enabling physicists to develop light-based particle accelerators as small as a grain of rice, describes Joel England Light work ...
