Sentences with phrase «accelerate beams of electrons»

To be built on the campus of the University of Rome Tor Vergata on the outskirts of the city, SuperB will accelerate beams of electrons and positrons inside two 1.2 - kilometer - circumference rings and study the decay of particles such as B mesons and tau leptons that are produced when the beams collide.

Not exact matches

Devices like this superconducting radio frequency cavity accelerate electron beams in the world's most powerful particle colliders and X-ray sources to nearly the speed of light.

A beam of electrons was first observed to be accelerated with a «gradient» — or energy transfer rate — of 300 MV / m, which is very high for present - day accelerators, in a device rather like a microchip.

Like the existing facility, LCLS - II will use electrons accelerated to nearly the speed of light to generate beams of extremely bright X-ray laser light.

Accelerating electrons through a series of these cavities allows the generation of an almost continuous X-ray laser beam with pulses that are 10,000 times brighter, on average, than those of LCLS and arrive up to a million times per second.

This strategy makes use of the intense electric fields associated with pulsed, high - energy laser beams to accelerate electrons and protons to «relativistic» velocities (i.e. speeds approaching that of light).

The photons arrive in two precise beams which should be created far from the neutron star surface: on the far end of the magnetosphere or outside it, in the ultra-relativistic wind of particles around the pulsar, to be able to accelerate electrons to such energies and to escape the large absorption in the magnetised atmosphere.

As these accelerated electrons stream outward, they produce beams of radiation that we receive every time the beam crosses our line of sight, like a lighthouse.

In the end, the strong separation of negatively charged electrons and now positively charged atoms, or ions, creates the forces that accelerate an ion beam toward the tumor.

However, the electrons are not all uniformly accelerated and beams with a mix of faster (higher energy) and slower (lower energy) particles are less practical.

Single - grain major and minor element compositions were measured using electron microprobe wavelength dispersive spectrometry at the University of Oxford Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art, using a Jeol JXA8600 electron microprobe, in wavelength dispersive mode, with 15 - keV accelerating voltage, 6 - nA beam current, and 10 - μm defocused beam.

Electron beams were injected and circulated overnight, and by Monday lunchtime, the first beam of 1995 was accelerated to the full energy of 45GeV.

Berkeley Lab was home to a pioneering experiment) in 2004 that showed laser plasma acceleration can produce relatively narrow energy spread beams - reported in the so - called «Dream Beam» issue of the journal Nature - and in 2006 used a similar laser - driven acceleration technique to accelerate electrons to a then - record energy of 1 billion electron volts, or GeV.
