Built to handle 500,000 collisions per second, the Electron-Ion Collider is integrating AI into everything from beam tuning ...

A new imaging technique using a particle accelerator is giving researchers an unprecedented level of detail of our organs, producing scans 100 billion times brighter than a CT scanner. Those 3D models ...

Traditional particle accelerators, including radiofrequency linear accelerators and synchrotrons, have pushed physics forward for decades. They are also expensive, physically large, and limited in how ...

Nuclear energy isn't as clean as we like to believe. The associated power plants produce small amounts of nuclear waste that require proper disposal. The main enemy here is time. All radioactive ...

In the blue corner, we have the VENUS FLYTRAP! In the red corner, we have the underdog of the century, AN ENTIRE PARTICLE ACCELERATOR. Yes, you read that right. When you have a particle accelerator, ...

A new particle has popped into existence at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, a heavier proton-like particle that contains two charm quarks. Protons and neutrons are examples of a class of particles ...

Researchers have developed a high-tech system that rapidly scans ants and converts them into detailed 3D models. Using a synchrotron accelerator, X-ray imaging, robotics, and AI, the team scanned ...

U.S. scientists are developing an innovation that could reduce nuclear waste storage time by 99.7%, transmuting long-lived radioactive materials into shorter-lived isotopes. The Jefferson Lab project, ...

Catalyst Campus is proud to welcome the fourth cohort of small businesses to the SDA TAP Lab – Catalyst Campus Mini Accelerator, a dynamic two-month program designed to prepare innovative companies ...

The Sun unleashes a torrent of charged particles. Some of them slam into the Earth’s atmosphere, triggering breathtaking auroras in the night sky. But for equipment that’s orbiting our planet in outer ...

Researchers are using an instrument at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory to uncover the original text of reused parchments. Jacqueline Ramseyer Orrell / SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory A ...
