The film demonstrates an experiment using an apparatus to observe the behavior of electrons in a uniform magnetic field. It explains how electrons are accelerated by an electron gun and then deflected ...

Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...

Using CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron, researchers generated plasma fireballs to simulate blazar jets. The beams stayed ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

In a world first, plasma “fireballs” have been created in the lab setting using the Super Proton Synchrotron accelerator at CERN, Geneva. The Oxford-led international science team experimented to ...

Researchers at the University of New Hampshire have harnessed artificial intelligence to accelerate the discovery of new ...

As someone who studies materials, Lu Li knows people want to hear about the exciting new applications and technologies his ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. For scientists and dreamers alike, one of the greatest hopes for a ...

A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...
