The book contains a description of the most important experimental results achieved at CERN during the past 60 years, from the mid-1950s to the latest discovery of the Higgs particle. It covers the results from early accelerators at CERN to the most recent results at the LHC and thus provide...
particle accelerators, fusion research facilities, remote sensors and other scientific instruments also produce large amounts of data. And as their capabilities improve over time, the data generation rates will only continue to grow.
As discussed by [111], given their observed non-thermal spectra, GRBs are expected to be efficient cosmic ray accelerators, with the first-order scenario being the Fermi acceleration mechanism in relativistic shocks (internal and external), alternatively a magnetic reconnection mechanism. The maximum...
This makes graphene a test bed for high-energy physics: some quantum relativistic effects that are hardly reachable in experiments with subatomic particles using particle accelerators have clear analogs in the physics of electrons and holes in graphene, which can be measured and studied more easily ...
There is also some expectation that their presence and mass may be inferred from experiments at new particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider. As an alternative to dark matter, modifications to gravity have been proposed to explain the apparent presence of “missing matter.” These ...
These machines are variations of particle accelerators (atom smashers). One of the more familiar X-ray machines is the security scanner used to examine baggage at airports. These machines use a very low-power scanner. They illuminate the interior of purses and suitcases without causing damage to...
