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 ...

Physicists have spent decades building colossal machines to hurl subatomic particles to near light speed, but the newest frontier in accelerator technology is smaller than a fingernail. By etching ...

The most energetic "ghost particle" neutrino ever detected may have been blasted at Earth by blazars, black hole engines that ...

An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

The future circular collider at CERN, intended to probe the properties of the Higgs boson in 20 years' time, excites ...

Texas A&M University professor Peter McIntyre and his colleagues want to build a particle accelerator around the rim of the Gulf of Mexico in order to discover the most fundamental building blocks of ...

Alex Bogacz, a senior scientist at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility since 1997, has spent his career in accelerator physics solving problems. From ...

Partnership combines TAU Systems' pioneering compact radiation testing platform with UCF's world-leading expertise in ...

Nuclear energy isn't as clean as we like to believe. The associated power plants produce small amounts of nuclear waste that require proper disposal. The main enemy here is time. All radioactive ...
