Room-size particle accelerators go commercial
Particle accelerators are usually huge structures—think of the 3.2-km-long SLAC National Accelerator Lab in Stanford, California. But scientists have been hard at work trying to shrink these ...

How do particle accelerators really 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 ...
Whenever SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's linear accelerator is on, packs of around a billion electrons each travel together at nearly the speed of light through metal piping. These electron ...
The European Space Agency’s (ESA) Cluster satellites have discovered that cosmic particle accelerators are more efficient than previously thought. The discovery has revealed the initial stages of ...
A computer-generated image based on a generative diffusion process shows 2D projections of a particle accelerator beam. Starting from pure noise, signals from the accelerator adaptively guide the ...

Researchers build plasma accelerator that boosts electron energy and brightness at the same time
Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of California, Los ...
Jefferson Lab Senior SRF Accelerator Physicist Haipeng Wang displays the core of a cavity magnetron during an April 2024 lab tour. NEWPORT NEWS, VA - A pocket-size gizmo that puts the “pop” in ...
Scientists have activated the smallest particle accelerator ever built—a tiny device roughly the size of a coin. This advancement opens new doors for particle acceleration, promising exciting ...
If one particle accelerator alone is not enough to achieve the desired result, why not combine two accelerators? Physicists have now implemented this idea. They combined two plasma-based acceleration ...
Particle accelerators (often referred to as “atom smashers”) use strong electric fields to push streams of subatomic particles—usually protons or electrons—to tremendous speeds. Accelerators by the ...
