That’s because, as far as we know, electrons are fundamental particles. In other words, they have no smaller components. That ...

Scientists at Loughborough University have made an exciting breakthrough in understanding how fine-tuning the behavior of ...

Physicists have long wondered why particles can only have an electric charge of +1, -2 or any whole number. Now we ...

In a recent article, researchers analyzed electron-cloud alignment in atomic argon induced by intense XFEL pulses. The study ...

Basically, it’s the same solid electron phase, except that groups of electrons settle in each place on a lattice instead of single electrons. Electrons usually flow through materials more or ...

It's a paper that's been more than four decades in the making. Published in Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, a study ...

Some physics faculty at Louisiana Tech University’s College of Engineering and Science have been awarded a $625,000 grant ...

All eyes were on the election of Donald Trump as US president earlier this month, whose win overshadowed two big appointments ...

This advancement opens new frontiers in the study of ultrafast electron dynamics and enables ... group leader of the FEL physics group at the European XFEL. "This development promises to transform ...

A team of researchers has successfully demonstrated nonlinear Compton scattering (NCS) between an ultra-relativistic electron beam and an ultrahigh intensity laser pulse using the 4-Petawatt laser.

“The functions of this project are fundamental in nature within nuclear physics on how particles interact with electron beams ...
