In a multiyear effort involving three national laboratories from across the United States, researchers have successfully built and tested a powerful new magnet based on an advanced superconducting ...

A group collaborating across four American laboratories completed the first successful tests of a superconducting coil in preparation for the future high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron ...

Researchers at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility at DOE's Brookhaven National Laboratory, depend on the facility's ...

Well, it's hit Slashdot now, so it won't take long to make the rounds. The Large Hadron Collider project at CERN suffered something of a setback on Tuesday, when, during a test of one of the ...

A trio of national U.S. labs have built and tested a powerful new magnet based on an advanced superconducting material. The eight-ton magnet—about as long as a semi-truck trailer—set a record for ...
