A particle accelerator is a machine that uses electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to nearly light speed and to contain them in well-defined beams. Large accelerators are best known for their use in particle physics as colliders (e.g. the LHC at CERN, RHIC at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and Tevatron at Fermilab). Other kinds of particle accelerators are used in a large variety of applications, including particle therapy for oncological purposes, and as synchrotron light sources for the study of condensed matter physics. There are currently more than 30,000 accelerators in operation around the world.
There are two basic classes of accelerators: electrostatic and oscillating field accelerators. Electrostatic accelerators use static electric fields to accelerate particles. A small-scale example of this class is the cathode ray tube in an ordinary old television set. Other examples are the Cockcroft–Walton generator and the Van de Graaff generator. The achievable kinetic energy for particles in these devices is limited by electrical breakdown. Oscillating field accelerators, on the other hand, use radio frequency electromagnetic fields to accelerate particles, and circumvent the breakdown problem. This class, which was first developed in the 1920s, is the basis for all modern accelerator concepts and large-scale facilities.

View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-does-an-atom-smashing-particle-accelerator-work-don-lincoln An atom smasher, or particle accelerator, collides atomic nuclei together at extremely cold temperatures, very low air pressure, and hyperbolically fast speeds. Don Lincoln explains how scientists harness the power of both electric and magnetic fields to smash atoms, eventually leading to major discoveries about the matter in our universe.

One of the biggest milestones of science, but also a superficial one, this project is just another attempt to find the connections and patterns previously seen only on calculations but sooner or later, it shall be found and confirm one of the scientist best bets of all times. This is one sheer example of what human curiosity can do!
The European Organisation for Nuclear Research is gearing up for the second run of the Large Hadron Collider, in the hope to produce new particles. Report by Gabriella Darlington.

Crazy Italy Earthquake Swarm, Deviation In Electron Beam at Particle Accelerator
Particle physics experiments employ high energy particle accelerators to make their measurements. However there are many kinds of particle accelerators with many interesting techniques. One important dichotomy is whether one takes a particle beam and have it hit a stationary target of atoms, or whether one takes two counter rotating beams of particles and smashes them together head on. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln explains the pros and cons of these two powerful methods of exploring the rules of the universe.
Jean-Luc Vay of Berkeley Lab's Accelerator Technology and Applied Physics Division is using a trick of relativity to make computer models of "laser wakefield" particle accelerators. Sometimes called "tabletop" accelerators, laser wakefield accelerators have the potential to pack the power of an LHC into a fraction of the space. Rather than slinging particles around a track using powerful electro magnets, these accelerators use the waves created by a laser shot through plasma to "surf" particles to higher speeds (or energies). Vey's models were chosen by the Department of Energy's Office of Science to be one of a handful of projects funded to run on next generation (exascale) supercomputers.

Fermilab Director Nigel Lockyer presents current particle accelerator applications in industry, medicine and national security and discusses potential future applications: cleaning waste water, capturing gas at oil wells, treating flue gas at coal power stations, and improving durability of asphalt on roads and highways. He gave his talk at the Midwest launch of the Accelerator Stewardship Test Facility Pilot Program, ( http://iarc.fnal.gov/pilot/ ) held by Fermilab and Argonne on April 28, 2015. The program aims to give industrial partners access to particle accelerator technologies, test facilities and experts at Department of Energy national laboratories as part DOE’s accelerator stewardship program.

This is a video showing our particle accelerator working, and breaking, and working again. The device was built from scratch, without cheats, by myself and a mate using Minecraft/Voltz. The accelerator is crafted with the help of power suits and power gloves. The particle accelerator itself uses a large quantity of electromagnets, and electromagnetic glass; requiring over 20,000 iron, steel, and copper ingots; all mined manually. The minimum size is 30x30, but we have decided to fully enclose it in a 60x60 square ring. It was finished mid-2013, but I've only just been able to upload it now in early Jan 2014. Sorry for the wait, and apologies for the network lag that is evident in the video. Also check out the Youtube Channel of Rando, whom I am building the accelerator with. http://www....
This program from History.com chronicles the events leading to the launch of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), an incredibly powerful particle accelerator with the potential to answer questions regarding the conditions that led to the Big Bang.
I noticed this interesting little prototype and felt it was my duty to cover it - especially since it gave me an opportunity to talk about science things that don't involve rockets. You can check out the early prototype from Craig Perko at http://craigp.itch.io/ This is also a test of my new video editing setup, the vocal processing has been tweaked quite a lot.
