  2. Anatoli Bugorski - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoli_Bugorski

    Anatoli Petrovich Bugorski (Russian: Анатолий Петрович Бугорский; born 25 June 1942) is a Russian retired particle physicist. He is known for surviving a radiation accident in 1978, when a high-energy proton beam from a particle accelerator passed through his head. [1] [2]

  3. Fixed-target experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-target_experiment

    The energy involved in a fixed target experiment is 4 times smaller compared to that in collider with the dual beams of same energy. [5] [6] More over in collider experiments energy of two beams is available to produce new particles, while in fixed target case a lot of energy is just expended in giving velocities to the newly created particles.

  4. Therac-25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25

    The Therac-25 is a computer-controlled radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) in 1982 after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units (the earlier units had been produced in partnership with Compagnie générale de radiologie (CGR) of France).

  5. Belle experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_experiment

    The KEKB accelerator was the world's highest luminosity machine at the time. [citation needed] A large fraction of the data was collected at the ϒ (4S). The instantaneous luminosity exceeded 2.11 × 10 34 cm −2 ·s −1. The integrated luminosity collected at the ϒ (4S) mass was about 710 fb −1 (corresponding to 771 million B B meson pairs).

  6. Wheeler's delayed-choice experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheeler's_delayed-choice...

    Wheeler's cosmic interferometer uses a distant quasar with two paths to equipment on Earth, one direct and one by gravitational lensing. After [2]. In an attempt to avoid destroying normal ideas of cause and effect, some theoreticians [who?] suggested that information about whether there was or was not a second beam-splitter installed could somehow be transmitted from the end point of the ...

  7. Safety of high-energy particle collision experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_of_high-energy...

    On 30 March 2010, the first planned collisions took place between two 3.5 TeV beams, which set another new world record for the highest energy man-made particle collisions. [11] In 2012 the beam energy was increased to 4 TeV, after upgrades in 2013 and 2014 collisions in 2015 and 2016 happened at an energy of 6.5 TeV per proton. [12]

  8. SuperKEKB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperKEKB

    SuperKEKB [1] is a particle collider located at KEK (High Energy Accelerator Research Organisation) in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan.SuperKEKB collides electrons with positrons at the centre-of-momentum energy close to the mass of the Υ(4S) resonance making it a second-generation B-factory for the Belle II experiment.

  9. Belle II experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_II_experiment

    Belle II is a general purpose high-energy particle detector with almost full solid angle coverage. It has a cylindrical shape to cover the e + e − collisions happening on the central axis of the detector. The detector is asymmetric in beam direction, because the initial energy of the electron beam is larger than the positron beam.
