"Long-Sought Beam Killer Resonance Discovered by CERN After 20 Years"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Interesting Engineering
After 20 years, scientists at CERN have discovered a beam killer resonance in high-intensity circular particle accelerators, which causes particles to deviate from their course and results in beam loss. This discovery was made through collaboration between scientists at the Super Proton Synchrotron and GSI in Darmstadt, and it proves the existence of a particular resonance structure.
