UK researchers have played a key role in the first successful acceleration of electrons using a wave generated by protons zipping through a plasma. The breakthrough by the AWAKE (Advanced WAKEfield ...

Scientists behind the world's largest atom smasher have laid out their multibillion-dollar vision to build an even bigger one, in hopes of unlocking even more secrets of matter and the universe in the ...

The universe has cooked up all sorts of bizarre and beautiful forms of matter, from blazing stars to purring cats, out of just three basic ingredients. Electrons and two types of quarks, dubbed “up” ...

Particle Physics is all about understanding the fundamental building blocks of matter and how they interact with each other. To do this, modern particle physicists build large experiments where the ...

A new particle accelerator four times bigger than the Large Hadron Collider is a step closer after CERN agreed to back the £19 billion (€21bn) project. The Future Circle Collider (FCC) will have a ...

Researechers are testing superconducting microwire single-photon detectors (SMSPDs) for use in future particle physics exepriments. The detectors, which were designed and fabricated at JPL and ...
