Physicists are sketching the designs of a particle accelerator that would be radically smaller and cheaper than existing facilities. The technique behind these designs, known as wakefield acceleration ...
The last collisions at RHIC took place on February 6, 2026. The particle accelerator provided insights into Big Bang matter ...
Machines like cyclotrons and synchrotrons help scientists recreate the conditions of the Big Bang and probe the very edges of particle physics. They also tend to be very big. Now, a new study details ...
In November, Quanta magazine published a feature on the detection of “magic” top quarks at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) ...
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) has not yet received a political green light or funding Add as a preferred source on Google Some of the 1232 dipole magnets that bend the path of accelerated protons ...
RIKEN’s particle accelerator facilities are producing astatine-211, a radioisotope with great promise for selective anti-tumor therapies, says Hiromitsu Haba. RIKEN has developed a device for the ...
An ongoing innovative project aims to revolutionize the study and preservation of cultural heritage. Known as NoMAD (Non-destructive Mobile Analysis and imaging Device), the project aims to develop ...
Scientists at CERN, the home of the Large Hadron Collider, have just observed an astoundingly rare phenomenon at the subatomic level that could lead to a new understanding of the standard model of ...
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 ...
TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Taiwan is hosting the prestigious International Particle Accelerator Conference (IPAC) for the first time, drawing nearly 1,000 experts from 37 countries to Taipei. National ...
