China's Circular Electron Positron Collider was meant to pick up where the Large Hadron Collider left off, but the project ...

China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator marked a sharp turn in the ...

Scientists recently fired up the world's smallest particle accelerator for the first time. The tiny technological triumph, which is around the size of a small coin, could open the door to a wide range ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator has reshaped the global race ...

Particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are wonders of modern engineering and vending machines for Nobel prizes, but they’re also large – as indicated by the LHC's name – and costly ...

Scientists working on an experiment at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in the US have taken a step forward in developing a technology which could significantly reduce the size of particle ...

Atoms will reveal their secrets—you just need enough speed to coerce them. Scientists have known this since at least the 1920s, when they first started firing particles at nuclei via large tubes ...

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 ...

Alex Knapp is a Forbes senior editor covering healthcare and science. Particle accelerators do exactly what they say on the tin - they move different kinds of subatomic particles very, very quickly.

‘What we’ve put together is almost a new machine.’ ‘What we’ve put together is almost a new machine.’ The Large Hadron Collider is reborn — on Easter weekend, of course. After shutting it down for two ...

From accelerators unexpectedly beneath your feet to a ferret that once cleaned accelerator components, Symmetry shares some lesser-known facts about particle accelerators. Despite their uptick in ...
