The Westinghouse Atom Smasher was intended to make measurements of nuclear reactions for research in nuclear power. [8] It was the first industrial Van de Graaff generator in the world, [9] and marked the beginning of nuclear research for civilian applications. [10] [11] Built in 1937, it was a 65-foot-tall (20 m) pear-shaped tower.
A researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, Russian SFSR, Anatoli Bugorski worked with the largest particle accelerator in the Soviet Union, the U-70 synchrotron. [3] On 13 July 1978, Bugorski was checking a malfunctioning piece of equipment when the safety mechanisms failed.
An accelerator-driven subcritical reactor (ADSR) is a nuclear reactor design formed by coupling a substantially subcritical nuclear reactor core with a high-energy proton or electron accelerator. It could use thorium as a fuel, which is more abundant than uranium .
It was the most powerful linear accelerator in the world when it was opened in June 1972. [1] The technology used in the accelerator was developed under the direction of nuclear physicist Louis Rosen. [2] The facility is capable of accelerating protons up to 800 MeV. Multiple beamlines allow for a variety of experiments to be run at once, and ...
The concept is credited to Italian scientist Carlo Rubbia, [1] a Nobel Prize particle physicist and former director of Europe's CERN international nuclear physics lab. He published a proposal for a power reactor (nicknamed "Rubbiatron") based on a proton cyclotron accelerator with a beam energy of 800 MeV to 1 GeV, and a target with thorium as fuel and lead as a coolant.

Just like last season, Dart is averaging 3.3 yards a carry after sacks are factored in and he’s only rushed for three TDs. He’s currently tied for 10th among all players in total touchdowns ...
J-PARC was built with a collaboration between KEK and JAEA, and is used for nuclear physics, particle physics, muon science, neutron science, Accelerator-Driven System (ADS) and a range of other applications. KEK digital accelerator (KEK-DA) is a renovation of the KEK 500 MeV booster proton synchrotron, which was shut down in 2006. The existing ...
