Scientists have successfully developed a pocket-sized particle accelerator capable of projecting ultra-short electron beams with laser light at more than 99.99% of the speed of light. To achieve this ...

Researchers at the University of Basel and the ETH in Zurich have succeeded in changing the polarity of a special ferromagnet ...

Some of the X-ray radiation circulating in the cavity is allowed to escape downstream, providing a beam of monochromatic and coherent X-ray pulses. They have called their system X-ray Free-Electron ...

Claudio Emma and Brendan O’Shea examine experimental apparatus at FACET-II in 2022. Scientists have created an ultrashort electron beam with five times more peak current than any other similar beam on ...
