PWFA can reduce the size and cost of such a collider, and ultimately extend the energy frontier of terrestrial particle colliders ... physics and help design future experiments and applications.

Most of the paper goes into detail about this, focusing on relativistic electron beams. This mission concept, known as Sunbeam, would use just such a beam. Utilizing electrons traveling at such ...

A new proposal uses an electron beam fired from a stable platform near the Sun, which could push a 1,000 kg spacecraft for up to 100 AU (100 times the distance from the Sun to the Earth).

“Terrestrial microorganisms ... exposing them to hard vacuum shoot an electron beam at 20 kilovolts at them,” Dr Genge told IFLScience. “Most organisms don't like that much, I wouldn ...
