  2. M134 Minigun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M134_Minigun

    The gun housing had a 500,000-round lifespan before it wore out, which was far higher than a conventional machine gun's 40,000-round lifespan but lower than that of other rotary guns. A hybrid of the two weapons resulted in the M134D-H, which had a steel housing and titanium rotor. It was cheaper with the steel component and only 1 lb (0.45 kg ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_Super_Collider

    The Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) (also nicknamed the "Desertron" [2]) was a particle accelerator complex under construction in the vicinity of Waxahachie, Texas, United States. Its planned ring circumference was 87.1 kilometers (54.1 mi) with an energy of 20 TeV per proton and was designed to be the world's largest and most energetic ...

    Fermitron was an accelerator sketched by Enrico Fermi on a notepad in the 1940s proposing an accelerator in stable orbit around the Earth. The undulator radiation collider [7] is a design for an accelerator with a center-of-mass energy around the GUT scale. It would be light-weeks across and require the construction of a Dyson swarm around the Sun.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_Minimi

    Introduced in the late 1970s, it is in service in more than 75 countries. [14] The weapon is manufactured at the FN facility in Herstal and their U.S. subsidiary FN Manufacturing LLC. The Minimi fires from an open bolt. It is an air-cooled, gas operated long-stroke piston weapon that is capable of fully automatic fire only.

    In 2002, one of the first bump stock-type devices, the Akins Accelerator invented by Bill Akins, was deemed by the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to not be a "machine gun". The Akins Accelerator used an internal spring to force the firearm forward to re-make contact with the trigger finger after the recoil of the ...

    Hunter led Texas to the win in the standings and in the box score with 21 points and three assists. He was followed by Dylan Disu, who recorded 19 points. The loss dropped the Bears to 14-4.

  9. Particle accelerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_accelerator

    It is a collider accelerator, which can accelerate two beams of protons to an energy of 6.5 TeV and cause them to collide head-on, creating center-of-mass energies of 13 TeV. There are more than 30,000 accelerators in operation around the world. [3] [4]
