When studying mysterious subatomic particles, researchers use a different kind of particle detector to prevent run-of-the-mill dust particles from getting in the way. If you’ve got physics on your ...
Alpha particle radioluminescence detection and imaging is an advanced optical technique that capitalises on the light emitted when alpha particles interact with air molecules. When alpha particles – ...
If you want to see neutrinos change flavors, you need a hefty detector. Yale University physicists and others at the Fermilab research facility in Illinois recently helped move a massive, 30-ton ...
The application of CVD diamond in high energy particle physics, fusion experiments, and neutron sources as vital diagnostic tools has been accelerated by a long-standing development partnership ...
There is a limit to how big we can build particle colliders on Earth, whether that is because of limited space or limited economics. Since size is equivalent to energy output for particle colliders, ...
A tiny particle that smashed into Earth with a record-shattering energy of 220 petaelectronvolts could be the last scream of an evaporating black hole. According to a new theoretical paper, the 2023 ...
The research project “BARB – Biomedical Applications of Radioactive Ion Beams” funded by a prestigious ERC Advanced Grant to Professor Marco Durante, head of the Biophysics Department at the GSI ...
The 7th international workshop on new Photon-Detectors took place from 3 to 5 December 2025 at Bologna’s Palazzo d’Accursio.
Particle never before seen on Earth detected; it could come from a primordial black hole and the origin of the universe.
Radiation is one of the key challenges faced by astronauts living and working beyond the protective shield of Earth's atmosphere. Neutron radiation, which constitutes about 30% of ...
