What are particle accelerators also called?
Particle accelerators are also known as atom smashers
What are atom smashers also called?
Particle accelerators are also known as atom smashers
Synthetic elements are produced in nuclear reactors and also by using what?
Particle Accelerators.
What is the linear strains?
its also known as longitudinal strain
What is the name of the machine that speeds up particle of matter?
You are probably referring to the cyclotron which is used to study the nucleus of matter by accelerating (speeding up) neutrons to a speed where they can be hurled at the nucleus of an atom in order to "smash" it. This is also the basics of nuclear fission which happens naturally in radioactive materials.You might be right, but I'd also like to include this quote from Wikipedia:A particle accelerator (or atom smasher, in the early 20th century[1]) is a device that uses electric fields to propel ions or charged subatomic particles to high speeds and to contain them in well-defined beams. An ordinary CRT television set is a simple form of accelerator. There are two basic types: linear accelerators and circular accelerators. I think this might be the answer too..
What is CERN working on?
The most famous of CERN's projects is The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) - The world's most powerful atom smasher. CERN's main function is to provide the particle accelerators and other infrastructure needed for high-energy particle physics research. Also, It is also noted for being the birthplace of the World Wide Web.
Who might use a particle accelerator?
Particle physicists doing research in quantum mechanics use particle accelerators, which are also called "atom smashers" or "colliders". These devices propel subatomic particles at high velocities and collide them with other subatomic particles, sometimes creating new elements, and recreating the properties of the early Universe, shortly after the Big Bang.
A particle of light unit of electromagnetic energy is also known as what?
a photon
What is linear moentum?
Also known simply as "momentum". It is the product of the velocity and the mass.
In statistics what is a particle filter used for?
A particle filter is usually used in statistics to estimate Bayesian models. a particle filter is also known as a sequential Monte Carlo method (SMC).
Is there any matter called 'GOD'?
The hypothetical particle called the Higgs boson is also known as the "god particle", pressumably because of its important role.
What is the smallest objects that scientists study?
Physicists are currently trying to find proof of the Higgs-Boson particle, also known as the God Particle. This particle is the fundamental unit of everything that contains mass in the universe.
