The scientists conducted a series of experiments using the CoReLS PW laser. The laser beam was split into two beams, each ...

PWFA can reduce the size and cost of such a collider, and ultimately extend the energy frontier of terrestrial particle colliders. The plasma and beams group combines efforts in theory, simulation, ...

After discussing the quirks in 3D modeling software, where a laser beam is treated as a solid object that can cast a shadow, ...

Scientists have shown that laser light, under certain conditions, can behave like an object and cast a shadow.

Can light itself, perhaps from a laser, cast a shadow? It might seem like a trick question, but the answer to this is "yes." ...

Protons and neutrons–known collectively as nucleons–are both the building blocks of matter, but one of these particles has ...

A particle accelerator on display in a museum exhibition is rare. But a functioning particle accelerator conducting real ...

Conventional knowledge presupposes that if two light beams cross, nothing of note happens. But in an experiment, as detailed ...

Researchers used a ruby crystal and specific laser wavelengths to demonstrate that a laser beam could obstruct light and ...

Researchers at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams made a high-precision mass measurement of aluminum-22, reaching the ...

These experiments rely on the controlled collision of high-energy protons with specialized targets to generate neutrinos.
