The team at J-PARC has achieved a significant milestone by successfully accelerating muons into a controlled beam, moving toward the goal of constructing a muon collider.
Tova Holmes emphasizes that the successful acceleration of muons represents a 'great step forward' in the quest to build a compact muon collider to explore new physics.
The muon collider would be a smaller and less expensive alternative to existing particle colliders, capable of producing high-energy collisions while being more compact.
The unique properties of muons allow a 10-kilometre collider to generate equivalent energy levels seen in larger machines like the 90-kilometre proton collider.
