When you think of a particle accelerator, you usually think of some giant cyclotron with heavy-duty equipment in a massive mad-science lab. But scientists now believe they can create particle ...

An international collaboration has developed a new diagnostic technique for measuring ultra-short particle beams at STFC's Central Laser Facility. This collaboration is led by the University of ...

One day, powerful particle accelerators might fit in your pocket. Two teams of physicists have built tiny structures that both accelerate electrons and keep them confined in a manageable beam, instead ...

The detection system along with associated hardware for electronic conditioning and control (core system depicted below). Physicists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and other institutes ...

Nuclear waste sits in temporary storage for 100,000 years, but Jefferson Lab’s particle accelerators slash that to just 300 years while generating electricity. This isn’t theoretical physics-it’s a $8 ...

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 ...
