Linear accelerators have become an indispensable component in the advancement of particle therapy, offering precise control over the delivery of ionising radiation for cancer treatment. The field ...

Particle accelerators are usually huge structures—think of the 3.2-km-long SLAC National Accelerator Lab in Stanford, ...

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 ...

After an almost two-year shutdown for repairs and upgrades, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is beginning to fire back up for its next phase of probing the mysteries of physics. Its newest particle ...

Particle accelerators smash tiny particles together to reveal the universe's building blocks. These machines have grown dramatically in size and power over time, leading to major discoveries. The ...

Deep beneath the border of France and Switzerland is the most massive, most ambitious experiment ever undertaken by humanity. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a particle accelerator that uses a ...

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (KRQE) – Los Alamos National Laboratory is celebrating 50 years of its globally sought-after linear particle accelerator. Scientists use the accelerator to study the interactions of ...

The first of its kind superconducting linear particle accelerator (LINAC) built for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory is now celebrating ...

Crews cooled a tunnel housing a particle accelerator to negative 456 degrees Fahrenheit — a temperature cooler than much of space — on April 15. Part of an upgrade project to Linac Coherent Light ...
