Researchers at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) near Geneva have started to seriously discuss the need for a new large accelerator for future generations of particle physicists. The most likely scenario seems to be a collider built in the Geneva area with a circumference of 80 or 100 km in which protons would collide (as is the case of the existing Large Hadron Collider at CERN). Other options are also being considered, such as the electron-positron collider which would precede the proton machine or electron-proton collider. The main scientific motivation is to find signals of new physics (i.e. those not predicted by the Standard Model of elementary particles) and/or to measure properties of the recently discovered Higgs boson with much higher precision than that foreseen to be achieved by the end of LHC in about 20 years. A sufficiently fast development of various technologies is the key to this new powerful accelerator. For the proton machine, the main components are magnets with high magnetic field that are expected to be built based on high-temperature superconducting materials, while the lepton machine needs a new generation of accelerating cavities with a high gradient of electric field, high power transfer efficiency and high reliability., Marek Taševský., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The DØ Experiment consists of a worldwide collaboration of scientists conducting research of the fundamental nature of matter. The experiment is located at the world´s premier high-energy accelerator, the Tevatron Collider, at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Batavia, Illinois, USA. The research is focused on precise studies of interactions of protons and antiprotons at the highest available energies. It involves and intense search for subatomic clues that reveal the character of the building blocks of the universe. and Alexander Kupčo, Miloš Lokajíček.
Urychlovače slouží k získávání intenzivních svazků iontů nebo částic s vysokou rychlostí a energií. Kinetické energie dodávané současnými urychlovači jsou v rozsahu od několika stovek keV do několika TeV (1 eV = 1.6 x 10(19) J). V makrosvětě tyto energie nikoho neohromí, ale v mikrosvětě je vše jinak: rychlost protonu s kinetickou energií 200 keV činí 2 % rychlosti světla, u elektronu se stejnou kinetickou eneregií je to dokonce 70 %. Ve světě vysokých energií se slovo urychlovač stává trochu nesmyslným, neboť rychlost částic už skoro neroste (blíží se rychlosti světla), ale roste jejich energie a tudíž i relativistická hmotnost., Zdeněk Doležal., and Obsahuje bibliografii
