This study optimizes a Diamond Light Source photon absorber using additive manufactured (AM; 3D printing) conformal cooling channels in copper, achieving a maximum temperature drop of 11%, pressure drop reduction of 82% and examination of the AM print quality and its compliance with synchrotron and particle accelerator hardware applications using custom benchmark artefacts. These improvements can reduce thermal fatigue failure, component size, vibrations and energy consumption of absorbers, boosting overall facility efficiency, reliability and beam stability.

A mystery in particle physics solved: Researchers from TUM observed for the first time how light atomic nuclei and their antiparticles are formed.

As part of an effort to bring the study of space radiation in-house, SpaceX is now developing its own particle accelerator in Florida.

A groundbreaking quantum device small enough to fit in your hand could one day answer one of the biggest questions in science — whether the multiverse is real. This tiny chip can generate extreme elec...
