Particle accelerators aren’t just for testing the Standard Model. They’re also used to diagnose and treat disease and study ...

While scientists are known for their dedication to their research, crawling on the floor to avoid electrocution for the sake ...

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 ...

Physicists have now demonstrated a particle accelerator so small it fits inside a single molecule, shrinking one of science’s most imposing machines to the scale of chemistry. Instead of ...

At TRIUMF, Pradeep Nair is making cyber risk personal, helping colleagues understand one another, and asking what happens to ...

A rare view of a component inside a particle accelerator. If you’ve ever wondered what an electron sees as it whizzes around a particle accelerator at the speed of light, then one photographer has ...

Atoms will reveal their secrets—you just need enough speed to coerce them. Scientists have known this since at least the 1920s, when they first started firing particles at nuclei via large tubes ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists at MIT discovered a method to create a kind of particle accelerator using a molecule of radium monofluoride. Once excited by lasers in a ...

Newswise — NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Keeping high-power particle accelerators at peak performance requires advanced and precise control systems. For example, the primary research machine at the U.S.

Banks of computer screens stacked two and three high line the walls. The screens are covered with numbers and graphs that are unintelligible to an untrained eye. But they tell a story to the operators ...
