Bright light/dark matter: Free-electron lasers enter the realm of particle physics
While two accelerators have been operating at Jefferson Lab for more than a decade, only one was known for its research probing the particles that make up our universe. But things have changed. A particle physics experiment recently performed with Jefferson Lab's Free-Electron Laser, powered by the lesser-known and smaller accelerator, has had its results published in Physical Review Letters.
