With the help of carbon nanotubes and laser light, this machine can create immensely powerful X-rays on a microchip, ...

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 ...

Researchers Sang-Ho Kim, An-Ping Li, Bronson Messer and Zac Ward of the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have been named Fellows of the American Physical Society in recognition of ...

Moonshot is developing an electromagnetic spacecraft launcher built like a rail track pointing to the sky - an electromagnetic accelerator designed to launch cargo into space at hypersonic speed. Due ...

Physicists tested light speed using cosmic gamma-ray bursts. Study confirms Einstein's prediction that all light colors travel at same speed.

A California-based company is getting $150M from the Trump Administration to build a particle accelerator at Albany Nanotech.

Energy that would normally go to waste inside powerful particle accelerators could be used to create valuable medical ...

We’re used to seeing ever greater particle accelerators — colossal machines sprawling across landscapes, built to reveal the ...

If you want to make particles move really fast, you have to build a particle accelerator that is really big, right? Not ...

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 ...
