The Cambridge Electron Accelerator, a joint undertaking of MIT and Harvard, was begun in April 1956 and is now about half completed. A two-story administration and laboratory building has been in ...

Reader [Xellers] sent in his newest instructable: DIY Electron Accelerator: A Cathode Ray Tube in a Wine Bottle. While not exactly what you might think of a cathode ray tube, the basics are in place.

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility for nuclear physics research at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, entered its 25th and final ...

As outlined in the Accelerator and Beam Physics Roadmap published in 2022, one of the biggest challenges for physicists—until now—has been to produce electron beams that are vastly more powerful while ...

The most powerful ultrashort electron beam ever created offers new possibilities for recreating cosmic conditions in ...

A team of physicists at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, in Menlo Park, California, generated the highest-current, ...

Ion implanters can also improve the reliability of materials used for medical implants. There are almost 10 000 electron beam accelerators in operation globally. They can, for example, help make ...

This was found at Mercury Plastics’ Neo-Beam facility, a 5MeV electron accelerator that’s usually used to deliver energy for molecular cross linking in PEX tubing to enhance chemical resistance.
