Most of the paper goes into detail about this, focusing on relativistic electron beams. This mission concept, known as Sunbeam, would use just such a beam. Utilizing electrons traveling at such ...

At relativistic speeds — that is near the speed of light — time moves more slowly, which would mean the electron beam ...

The beam is then scanned across the sample, and the differences in electron-scattering when ... but by the intrinsic core-hole lifetimes. Relativistic electrons can produce transition and ...

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 ...

Powering such a beam requires up to 19 gigaelectron volts, a challenge feasible with today’s particle accelerator technology, such as the Large Hadron Collider. Though in early stages ...

Scientists have created an ultrashort electron beam with five times more peak current than any other similar beam on Earth. "Not only can we create such a powerful electron beam, but we're also ...
