At Beijing, the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) was commissioned in 1988 and physicists are now considering the next step.
On 11 September, French Minister of Research and Technology Roger-Gerard Schwartzenberg announced the decision to build the SOLEIL third-generation synchrotron radiation source near Paris.
While proton-proton collisions will be the principal diet of CERN's LHC machine, heavy-ion collisions will also be on the menu. The ALICE experiment will be ready and waiting.
An experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center has recently focused positron beams by means of a plasma lens. This is the first time this process has been observed.
The unique HERA electron-proton collider at DESY, Hamburg, achieved record performance in 2000 before being shut down for nine months of "lumi upgrade".
After achieving first collisions of gold ion beams on the night of 12 June, the gleaming new Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) facility at Brookhaven wasted no time in ramping up in energy and i...
The PEP-II asymmetric B-factory at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) continues to exceed expectations, having nearly reached its design performance after only a year of operations.
The Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron B-meson factory recently completed a successful first year of operation.
After commencing 2000 operations in fine style, CERN's flagship machine, the LEP electron-positron collider, has been regularly delivering experiments with beams of 103 GeV or more.
Jefferson Laboratory's CEBAF accelerator, which was originally designed to provide 4 GeV continuous-wave electron beams, has demonstrated 6 GeV continuous-wave operation.
