SLAC makes world’s shortest bunches
Using the full length of the linear accelerator, as well as loops and bends in the beam, and the usually troublesome effect of the wakefield, SLAC has made the world's shortest bunches of electrons - ...

Germanium crystals have long been used to study photons with energies from 50 keV to 10 MeV. Their excellent energy resolution (approaching 0.1%) has created numerous applications in nuclear and parti...
On 14 August, after four years of mining, construction and testing, the Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) collaboration announced the start-up of its 5400 tonne neutrino detector in th...
This summer the IT division at CERN was a hive of activity as dozens of young software engineers worked round the clock to launch the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) Computing Grid (LCG) into its first ph...
Six of the most distant galaxies ever seen have been discovered in a small area of the sky less than five per cent the size of the full Moon. Located approximately 12,600 million light-years away, we ...
Four international collaborations have recently announced strong experimental evidence for a five-quark exotic baryon named the theta-plus, composed of two up quarks, two down quarks and a strange ant...
After a difficult year, it seems that an air of optimism is back in the INFN laboratories at Gran Sasso.
Researchers at the US Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) have produced first light from their 10 kW free-electron laser (FEL).
During the past 10 years, polarized solid targets have been successfully used at CERN and SLAC to investigate the spin structure of the nucleon.
Within the framework of the CERN-Asia Fellows and Associates Programme, CERN offers three grants every year to young East, Southeast and South Asia postgraduates under the age of 33, enabling them to ...
