A New Way to Accelerate Protons Could Transform Particle Accelerators
Published 20 hours ago
Description
Scientists in Japan have found a new way to push protons to extremely high energies using powerful lasers and incredibly thin sheets of graphene. The experiment also used AI to spot rare signals hidden among millions of detector images. The result could help scientists develop a new generation of smaller, smarter particle accelerators.
