Searching
for answers to fundamental questions about the ultimate structure of matter
and the forces between these fundamental particles, scientists use accelerators
which speed electrons and anti-electrons to nearly the speed of light, and
study their collisions and collisions from fixed target experiments. Using
similar technology in astrophysics, space-based detectors will help us understand
the birth and evolution of the universe.
