What is the nickname for a particle accelerator?

The nickname for a particle accelerator is often "atom smasher" because it is used to accelerate and collide particles at high energies to study their fundamental properties.


What particle can not be accerlated by the electric or magnetic field in a particle accelerator?

Neutrinos cannot be accelerated by electric or magnetic fields in a particle accelerator because they have no electric charge and very small magnetic moment. This means they are unaffected by these fields and pass through them without being deflected.


What is the name of the Particle accelerator complex located beneath the Franco-Swiss border?

It is called the CERN accelerator complex. The complex consists of the following Particle accelerators: Linear accelerator I & II, Proton Synchrotron Booster, Low energy ring, Proton Synchrotron, Super proton snchrotron, and the Large Hadron Collider (as of Oct 18, 2009.)


Is a particle accelerator used to provide charged particles with sufficient kinetic energy to penetrate a nucleus?

Yes, a particle accelerator is used to accelerate charged particles to high speeds, giving them sufficient kinetic energy to penetrate a nucleus. When the particles collide with the nucleus, they can break it apart or induce nuclear reactions.


Could a particle accelerator collider blow up the world?

No, a particle accelerator collider cannot blow up the world. The energy levels in particle accelerators are not high enough to cause such catastrophic events. Safety measures are in place to prevent any such disasters from occurring.
