UC Santa Cruz Professor of Applied Mathematics Dongwook Lee has won a three-year, $1.1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, which will fund his research on improving computer models for ...

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

Nuclear waste sits in temporary storage for 100,000 years, but Jefferson Lab’s particle accelerators slash that to just 300 years while generating electricity. This isn’t theoretical physics-it’s a $8 ...

Mark Thomson, the new head of Europe's physics laboratory CERN, voiced confidence Tuesday about raising the billions of dollars needed to build by far the world's biggest particle accelerator. CERN, ...

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I have found in a new research project. The way that intense X-rays are ...

Scientists have spotted the heaviest antimatter nucleus ever detected lurking in a particle accelerator. The antimatter heavyweight, called antihyperhydrogen-4, is made up of an antiproton, two ...

Every time two beams of particles collide inside an accelerator, the universe lets us in on a little secret. Sometimes it's a particle no one has ever seen. Other times, it's a fleeting glimpse of ...

NASA’s Juno Mission has captured electrons traveling near the speed of light in Jupiter’s magnetic environment, providing unprecedented evidence of how high-energy particles, including cosmic rays, ...
