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 ...
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 ...
Nuclear fusion is a dream of many green energy enthusiasts. Rather than split heavy nuclei apart to release energy, future fission reactors would capture the energy released when lightweight nuclei ...
As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing ...
