Restarting the Large Hadron Collider -- the $10 billion research tool's full name -- has been "a herculean effort," CERN's director for accelerators, Steve Myers, said in a statement announcing the ...

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

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

A quartz-lined waveguide kept terahertz light synchronized with relativistic electrons, pointing toward much smaller ...

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

Deep beneath the border of France and Switzerland is the most massive, most ambitious experiment ever undertaken by humanity. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a particle accelerator that uses a ...

With progress that ASML makes with its LPP EUV light sources for its scanners, the company is barely interesting in adopting particle accelerator-based FEL sources.

A beam of electrons crossed just a few millimeters of plasma, then helped trigger an effect that usually belongs to massive research sites. In this case, the light produced fell in the extreme ...

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 ...

Misha Glenny and guests discuss the machines that are described as the world’s largest experiments: Particle Accelerators. A ...

The role magnets play in physics research is a critical one, helping guide the trajectory of particle beams that allow for high-speed collisions and groundbreaking discoveries. But not all magnets are ...
