Plasma-based accelerators use plasmas to increase the ... with low (degree-level) proton beam divergence from a laser pulse focused onto a water sheet target, potentially mitigating the need ...

Once a year, the Large Hadron Collider smashes lead ions. But how do scientists get a heavy metal into a particle accelerator ...

The project will use a new, £3M system for multimodal ion beam imaging. The system combines water cluster ion beams with high-energy ion beams from an accelerator, to generate X-rays and mass spectra.

In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device has successfully generated its first tokamak plasma ... at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reveals fresh evidence ...

China’s first self-developed heavy ion accelerator facility for cancer treatment is used in radiotherapy for cancer ... Relevant treatment methods include photon beam radiation therapy that uses gamma ...

After a breakdown in US-Russia relations, Riken finds itself ahead of its rivals. And Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory chases element 120 ...

Startup accelerators are programs typically geared toward seed and early-stage startups. Members of a startup accelerator program gain services for every stage of company ownership, from launch to ...

A research team from KAIST Nuclear and Quantum Engineering presents an AI assesser for Hall-effect ion thrusters, the engines ...

Jets are created when a quark or gluon within a proton or neutron in one of RHIC's ion beams collides intensely with a quark or gluon in the nuclear particles that make up the beam traveling in ...
