Particle accelerators work on the same basic principles. They accelerate particles to very high speeds and then smash them together (I’ll note that there are particle accelerates that function at much ...

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 ...

A particle accelerator is a device that uses electric fields to propel electrically charged particles to high speeds and magnetic fields to contain them. An ordinary CRT televison set is a simple form ...

The 1940s saw the origins of linear electron accelerators that directly led to the 2-mile-long accelerator at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. SLAC archivist Jean Deken presents a pictorial history ...

Linear accelerators (also called linacs), cyclotrons, and synchrotrons are some of the most complex and expensive tools ever built. In general, their purpose is to accelerate charged particles ...

Particle accelerators are the engines of particle physics research at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. They generate nearly light-speed, subatomic particles that scientists study to get to the ...

IT has frequently been suggested that a linear accelerator could be constructed using a wave-guide consisting of a circular metal tube lined with an insulating tube of dielectric, and several writers ...
