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

Device deemed to burn uranium 100 times more efficiently, while cutting nuclear waste lifespan to less than a thousandth of ...

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 ...

Estimating things that exist is generally easy, but when it comes to estimating things that do not exist, it's more difficult ...

There is a limit to how big we can build particle colliders on Earth, whether that is because of limited space or limited economics. Since size is equivalent to energy output for particle colliders, ...

Nuclear waste becomes clean energy as Jefferson Lab's particle accelerators reduce storage time by 99.7% while generating ...

Particle accelerators are usually huge structures—think of the 3.2-km-long SLAC National Accelerator Lab in Stanford, California. But scientists have been hard at work trying to shrink these ...

A computer-generated image based on a generative diffusion process shows 2D projections of a particle accelerator beam. Starting from pure noise, signals from the accelerator adaptively guide the ...

Researchers in the US have revealed that an emerging class of quantum sensors, called ...
