Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

The Sun’s most violent flares are turning out to be even more extreme than I, or many solar physicists, had imagined. By ...

Abstract: The article explores the design and radiation characterization of a wireless physical layer (PHY) specifically tailored for equipment control in harsh radiation environments, such as those ...

Watch a nuclear engineer react to Lightning Bottle from a Particle Accelerator by Electron Impressions. This video dives into high-voltage physics, particle behavior, and the science behind safely ...

Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up of my favourite research of 2025 I have chosen five stories in which ...

Abstract: Smith-Purcell Radiation is a special case of diffraction radiation produced when a charged particle passes just over the top of a grating surface. The wavelength of emitted radiation is ...

You’ve probably seen Lichtenberg figures before, those lightning-like traces left by high-voltage discharge. The safe way to create them is using an electron beam to embed charge inside an acrylic ...

Europe's physics lab CERN on Thursday said private donors had pledged $1 billion towards the construction of a new particle accelerator that would be by far the world's biggest. In a first, private ...
