So-called forever chemicals or PFAS compounds are a growing environmental problem. An innovative approach to treating ...

One day, powerful particle accelerators might fit in your pocket. Two teams of physicists have built tiny structures that both accelerate electrons and keep them confined in a manageable beam, instead ...

Physicists often use machine learning to automate the task of tuning particle accelerators in real time to get the best performance. Jan Kaiser at the German Electron Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg and ...

Particle accelerators are crucial tools in a wide variety of areas in industry, research and the medical sector. The space these machines require ranges from a few square meters to large research ...
