In high-intensity laser–matter interactions, including laser-induced particle acceleration, physicists generally want to work ...

Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really precision tools that use electric fields and magnets to steer tiny beams of matter ...

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

An international team of researchers is pushing forward with plans for a radically smaller, cheaper particle accelerator by using a powerful technique that's been decades in the making, known as the ...

There are many applications for particle accelerators, even outside research facilities, but for the longest time they have been large, cumbersome machines, not to mention very expensive to operate.

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 ...

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – From televisions to X-ray machines, many modern technologies are enabled by electrons that have been juiced up by a particle accelerator. Now, the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...
