Despite its potential, electron beam propulsion faces significant challenges. Generating and maintaining a high-energy beam over interstellar distances requires unprecedented precision and stability.
An exotic new approach could shrink kilometer-scale machines into table-top devices.
An extraordinary event consistent with a neutrino with an estimated energy of about 220 PeV (220 x 1015 electron volts or 220 ...
By using a high-energy electron beam that passes through an ultra-thin sample, HRTEM can provide detailed information about the crystal structure, atomic arrangement, and defects in nanomaterials, ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have discovered a highly sensitive sensor ...
Researchers at Argonne have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate ...
including high energy (MeV) and low energy (keV) electron beam and X ray irradiation. Comparative studies of gamma, electron beam and X ray irradiation for food and phytosanitary uses are also ...
"Chemical rockets that we use today, even with the extra speed boost from flying by planets, or from swinging by the sun for a boost, just don't have the ability to scale to useful interstellar speeds ...
The electron beam energy is efficiently converted into multi-megaelectronvolt Bremsstrahlung photons when it interacts with a solid target of high atomic number, providing a submillimetre pulsed ...
