Solar flares are among the most violent explosions in our solar system, but despite their immense energy — equivalent to a hundred billion atomic bombs detonating at once — physicists still haven’t ...

Physicists have now demonstrated a particle accelerator so small it fits inside a single molecule, shrinking one of science’s most imposing machines to the scale of chemistry. Instead of ...

LCLS-II is the new superconducting element of SLAC’s longstanding particle accelerator. It’ll accelerate elections to produce X-rays that are 10,000 times brighter than its predecessor, LCLS (Linac ...

An MIT-led team has found that data from “near-misses” at the Large Hadron Collider, long dismissed as background noise, can be mined for rare photon-photon interactions that test the boundaries of ...

Photographer Charles Brooks is known for his captivating photos inside musical instruments, so Australia’s ANSTO invited him to capture the inside of a new part being installed on its synchotron ...
