Mark Thomson, the new head of Europe's physics laboratory CERN, voiced confidence Tuesday about raising the billions of dollars needed to build by far the world's biggest particle accelerator.
Scientists recently fired up the world's smallest particle accelerator for the first time. The tiny technological triumph, which is around the size of a small coin, could open the door to a wide range ...

Laser sculpting gives rare control over particle acceleration
Physicists are learning to carve laser beams into intricate shapes that can grab hold of electrons and push them with a precision that once sounded like science fiction. Instead of simply blasting ...
An ongoing innovative project aims to revolutionize the study and preservation of cultural heritage. Known as NoMAD (Non-destructive Mobile Analysis and imaging Device), the project aims to develop ...
Using powerful X-rays, researchers at SLAC are trying to recover erased traces of a 2,000-year-old star catalog that could ...

What's a particle accelerator doing in a hospital?
Description: Hospitals have all sorts of amazing tools, and some might even have a particle accelerator hiding somewhere in ...
Subcritical Systems Inc., an Austin-based energy technology company, announced today that it plans to pursue licensing for its accelerator-driven subcritical energy system under the existing U.S.
Solar flares are among the most violent explosions in our solar system, but despite their immense energy — equivalent to a hundred billion atomic bombs detonating at once — physicists still haven’t ...
The USA has only two accelerators that can produce 10 billion electron-volt particle beams, and they're each about 1.9 miles (3 km) long. "We can now reach those energies in 10 cm (4 inches)," said ...
The age of room-sized (and larger) colliders may be coming to an end now that researchers from Stanford have developed a nano-scale particle accelerator that fits on a single silicon chip. Share on ...
