An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

In a groundbreaking study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists from ETH Zurich, in collaboration with teams from ...

The Palimpsest, a writing of Archimedes once thought lost to history, has been revealed through the advanced use of a ...

The world’s largest atom smasher has conducted its first-ever collisions between protons and oxygen ions, as part of an ...

Two possible methods of optically injecting electrons into a plasma accelerator are the self-modulated laser wakefield accelerator (SMLWFA) and laser ionization and ponderomotive acceleration (LIPA).

The first test images from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile showcase thousands of previously unknown asteroids and ...

Two German physicists have reimagined how to create powerful and uniform magnetic fields using compact permanent magnets. By ...

Cosmic rays hit Earth’s atmosphere all the time, but most are too weak to detect. A few, however, carry extreme energy: more than a million times what particle accelerators on Earth can produce. A new ...

Similarly, particle detection in electron and neutron diffraction experiments records single impacts, which collectively form interference patterns over time. These observations reinforce the view ...

Classical and quantum mechanics don’t really get along as the science of the subatomic can get, well, weird. Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is becoming a powerful tool for the control and optimization of particle accelerators, which is increasingly used in various accelerators. However, the efficacy ...
