An SRF team at Fermilab has demonstrated record performance from an accelerating cavity using a technique that could lead to significant cost savings for future accelerators.
accelerator R&D
When complete, the HL-LHC will produce five to seven times more proton-proton collisions than the current LHC — thanks in part to important collider components contributed by Fermilab.
The 300 million-electronvolt beam surpasses two key energy goals for accelerator science.
The money will further a novel conceptual technique for Chicago water treatment with high-power electron beams.
Years of work upgrading the accelerator have made it possible to achieve the high beam power needed to produce neutrinos — the most elusive of nature’s known particles — by the truckload.
The Presidential Early Career Awards highlight the key role that the administration places in encouraging and accelerating American innovation to grow our economy and tackle our greatest challenges.
The delivery of 50-MeV beam is the first step in establishing an accelerator R&D facility that will serve as one of America’s leading test beds for cutting-edge, record-high-intensity particle beam research.
A new radio-frequency quadrupole, designed and built by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, will help provide intense, focused beams to the entire Fermilab accelerator complex.
Each will receive $2.5 million, distributed over five years, to advance their work at the laboratory.
From Silicon Republic, April 8, 2016: Researchers in the United States, including Fermilab researchers, and CERN have teamed up to produce 20 new accelerator magnets, which, when put together into the next LHC in 2026, will up its power by a factor of ten.
