Plasma, the fourth state of matter, consists of a gas in which electrons are no longer bound to atoms, which allows ...

The Human Organ Atlas gives an extremely detailed look at 56 human organs, scanned with the help of a particle accelerator.

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 ...

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 ...

The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has detected PeV (1015 eV) gamma-ray emission from a pulsar wind nebula powered by PSR J1849-0001 in the constellation Aquila, marking the ...

Built in 1945, Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer, or ENIAC, was the world’s first digital, programmable computer—it also weighed 30 tons and was the size of a small room. Today, computers ...

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 ...

Georg Hoffstaetter de Torquat, professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, is leading a $2.9 million Department ...

Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we ...

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 ...

Superconductors, materials that can conduct electricity with a resistance of zero, have proved to be highly promising for the ...
