Scientists have developed a new machine-learning platform that makes the algorithms that control particle beams and lasers smarter than ever before. Their work could help lead to the development of ...

Keeping high-power particle accelerators at peak performance requires advanced and precise control systems. For example, the primary research machine at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

A new review in Nature chronicles the many ways machine learning is popping up in particle physics research. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider produce about a million gigabytes of data every ...

The world's largest particle accelerator is now preparing for its next major scientific challenge: understanding dark matter, ...

The volume of data particle physicists have to sort through at the Large Hadron Collider is staggering, and it’s about to increase by an order of magnitude. To cope with this torrent of data, CERN is ...

A machine that will investigate the forces that hold matter together finally has a home. On Thursday, the US Department of Energy announced that the long-awaited Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a type of ...
