Particle physics. Positrons ride the wave
- Fermi National Accelerator Lab. (FNAL), Batavia, IL (United States)
Here, experiments reveal that positrons — the antimatter equivalents of electrons — can be rapidly accelerated using a plasma wave. The findings pave the way to high-energy electron–positron particle colliders.
