Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerators represent a cornerstone technology in modern particle acceleration, combining the dual functions of beam bunching and acceleration. Employing specially ...

If you were asked to imagine a particle accelerator, you would probably picture a high-energy electron beam contained within a kilometers-long facility, manned by hundreds of engineers and researchers ...

Particle accelerators are usually large. The Large Hadron Collider, for instance, is 17 miles in circumference. But now a team of scientists at Stanford have created a silicon chip that can act as a ...

Hamish Johnston explains how software born in an accelerator lab is now being used for everything from medical physics to invisibility cloaks In 1975 Thomas Weiland was a physicist at the Technische ...
