The potential of plasma wakefield acceleration

FACET-II will pave the way for a future generation of particle colliders and powerful light sources, opening avenues in high-energy physics, medicine, and materials...

A cheap technique could detect neutrinos in polar ice, eventually allowing researchers to expand the energy reach of IceCube without breaking the bank.

At SLAC’s FACET facility, researchers have produced an intense electron beam by 'sneaking’ electrons into plasma, demonstrating a method that could be used in...

Particle accelerators are some of the most complicated machines in science.

An advisory committee is evaluating proposals for first experiments at SLAC’s future FACET-II accelerator facility.

Three new studies show the promise and challenge of using plasma wakefield acceleration to build a future electron-positron collider.
