Particle accelerators, also known as particle colliders or atom smashers, have been responsible for some of the most exciting physics findings over the past century, including the discovery of the ...

To unlock the secrets of dark matter, scientists could turn to supermassive black holes and their ability to act as natural superpowered particle colliders. That's according to new research that found ...

This episode is made in partnership with our friends at What’s Watt, a new show about electricity. Head to their channel now ...

Using powerful X-rays, researchers at SLAC are trying to recover erased traces of a 2,000-year-old star catalog that could ...

Scientists have activated the smallest particle accelerator ever built—a tiny device roughly the size of a coin. This advancement opens new doors for particle acceleration, promising exciting ...

Particle accelerators are usually huge structures—think of the 3.2-km-long SLAC National Accelerator Lab in Stanford, California. But scientists have been hard at work trying to shrink these ...

A computer-generated image based on a generative diffusion process shows 2D projections of a particle accelerator beam. Starting from pure noise, signals from the accelerator adaptively guide the ...

Startup Substrate is building next-generation semiconductor fabs using advanced X-ray lithography. This goes beyond extreme ...

The age of room-sized (and larger) colliders may be coming to an end now that researchers from Stanford have developed a nano-scale particle accelerator that fits on a single silicon chip. Share on ...

Presented by the Laura and Alvin Siegal Lifelong Learning Program, the Origins Science Scholars Program series engages community members with one another and with leading scholars to investigate ...

Alex Bogacz, a senior scientist at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility since 1997, has spent his career in accelerator physics solving problems. From ...
