First, they send the uneven electron bunches from the LUX (Laser and X-ray free electron laser) accelerator through a special arrangement of four magnets called a chicane.

The new machine, known as a nanophotonic electron accelerator (NEA), consists of a small microchip that houses an even smaller vacuum tube made up of thousands of individual "pillars." ...

This milestone, published in Nature, marks the first successful demonstration of a nanophotonic electron accelerator—a concept first proposed in 2015. "For the first time, ...

Stanford researchers are getting closer to building a tiny electron accelerator based on “accelerator-on-a-chip” technology with broad potential applications in studying physics as well as ...

Fermilab researchers are building a prototype electron beam accelerator that integrates four emerging accelerator technologies into a single, efficient accelerator system. Industrial partners ...

The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is back in action after a three-year break for maintenance and an upgrade with more energy, higher intensity beams and greater ...
