TeV Energy Superconducting Linear Accelerator (TESLA)

Physics; Particle physics

A proposal for a next-generation linear collider made by an international collaboration based at DESY.

Tevatron

Physics; Particle physics

A 2 TeV proton on anti-proton collider that operates at Fermilab in Batavia, Illinois. The top quark was discovered using this accelerator.

Scientific Assessment Group for Experiments in Non-Accelerator Physics (SAGENAP)

Physics; Particle physics

A committee that reports to the Department of Energy and National Science Foundation.

Stanford Linear Accelerator centre (SLAC)

Physics; Particle physics

Located in Menlo Park, California, this Department of Energy laboratory is the site of the BaBar experiment.

Stanford Linear Collider (SLC)

Physics; Particle physics

This accelerator, located on the SLAC site, was completed in 1989 was used to study the Z-boson in detail.

Supernova/Acceleration Probe (SNAP)

Physics; Particle physics

A proposed satellite-based experiment for finding and studying supernovae. The characteristics of such supernovae have proved useful in studying dark energy.

NuMI (Neutrinos at the Main Injector)

Physics; Particle physics

A project at Fermilab to construct a beam of neutrinos for use in the MINOS experiment.
