An innovative algorithm for detecting collisions of high-speed particles within nuclear fusion reactors has been developed, inspired by technologies used to determine whether bullets hit targets in ...

Particles colliding in accelerators produce numerous cascades of secondary particles. The electronics processing the signals avalanching in from the detectors then have a fraction of a second in which ...

Deep inside every atom lies a restless world of quarks and gluons—the tiny building ...

Whenever SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's linear accelerator is on, packs of around a billion electrons each travel together at nearly the speed of light through metal piping. These electron ...

Fine particles play a crucial role in defining the properties of both natural and synthetic materials, significantly influencing processes such as adsorption, dissolution, and reaction rates. In many ...
