The U.S. Department of Energy is betting $40 million that particle accelerators can crack one of nuclear power’s oldest ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-based method to dramatically tame the flood of data generated by ...

The last collisions at RHIC took place on February 6, 2026. The particle accelerator provided insights into Big Bang matter for 25 years.

Fundamental particles called quarks can be created in quantum-correlated pairs. These correlations can be passed on to larger particles that form from the quarks. The strong force differs from others ...

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider , the largest particle collider in the United States, collided its last particles in early February. RHIC is a massive accelerator ring and set ...
