Particle accelerators could be incredibly useful for medicine – if they weren’t so huge. The SLAC accelerator, for example, is almost 2 mi (3.2 km) long, while CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) runs ...

This image, magnified 25,000 times, shows a section of a prototype accelerator-on-a-chip. The segment shown here are one-tenth the width of a human. The oddly shaped gray structures are ...

An electrical device that generates charged particles, such as electrons, protons and ions, at high energy. So-called "nuclear accelerators" are used to split the atom for scientific research, but ...

BATAVIA, Ill. (WLS) -- Fermilab in west suburban Batavia broke ground on a new particle accelerator project Friday. The new machine will power cutting-edge physics experiments for years to come by ...

Scientists at Stanford have made a working prototype particle accelerator smaller than a human hair. Shrinking particle accelerators is a high-priority goal because of the potential in applications ...

With the help of special telescopes, researchers have observed a cosmic particle accelerator as never before. Observations made with the gamma ray observatory H.E.S.S. in Namibia show for the first ...
