Relativistic heavy ion collider smashes record for polarized proton luminosity

Tuesday, April 14, 2015 - 21:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Thanks to accelerator advances, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider , a powerful nuclear physics research facility has just shattered its own record for producing polarized proton collisions at 200-giga-electron-volt collision energy. The improvement will generate high volumes of data rapidly, giving physicists time to achieve several high-priority science goals in a single run at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.
