US private fusion energy company TAE Technologies and the UK Atomic Energy Authority have announced a bilateral and reciprocal investment commitment to commercialise TAE's proprietary particle ...

A view of ATLAS, the largest general-purpose particle detector experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, a particle accelerator at CERN in Switzerland.CERN Scientists have found a way to convert ...

We’re used to seeing ever greater particle accelerators — colossal machines sprawling across landscapes, built to reveal the smallest details of the universe. Think of the Large Hadron Collider and ...

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 ...

In a lab at MIT, researchers have built a particle accelerator no bigger than a molecule. By targeting a radium monofluoride molecule with laser energy inside a vacuum, they observed electrons ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists at MIT discovered a method to create a kind of particle accelerator using a molecule of radium monofluoride. Once excited by lasers in a ...

Stadium-sized X-ray machines might soon fit on a desk. Carbon nanotubes just changed the game. (Image is representative)Getty Images New research suggests that particle accelerators capable of ...

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 ...
