ADSR

Accelerator-driven sub-critical reactor, a nuclear reactor using a particle accelerator to generate a fission reaction in a sub-critical assembly of fissionable material


Australian Atomic Energy Commission

Other significant facilities constructed by the Commission at Lucas Heights included a 3MeV Van de Graaff particle accelerator, installed in 1964 to provide proton beams and now upgraded to become ANTARES, a smaller 1.3MeV betatron, and radioisotope production and remote handling facilities associated with HIFAR reactor.

Emmert International

Notable projects include Howard Hughes' Spruce Goose Airplane, The Hubble Telescope, the 3.2 million-pound brick Fairmount Hotel, the L.A. Country Museum’s "Levitated Mass" exhibit and Fermilab's g-2 muon accelerator.

Evesham Technology

It developed and licensed a number of peripherals and upgrades for the ZX Spectrum (48K memory upgrade, Interface III cheat/copy Cartridge) and Commodore 64 (Freeze Frame cheat/copy Cartridge, Dolphin DOS disk drive accelerator, Oceanic disk drive replacement) in the second half of the 1980s.

Grand Prix Legends

GPLs lack of inbuilt support for 3D accelerator cards other than those produced by 3dfx and Rendition contributed to a decrease in sales when those cards became obsolete, since at the time there was no Direct3D support.

Independence War 2: Edge of Chaos

They conclude that the most effective action would be to find help outside of the Badlands, so they attack and secure the Santa Romera Jump Accelerator, a highly advanced piece of technology that allows travel over significantly longer distances than even Lagrange points.

Jasper Kirkby

He originated the idea for the Tau-Charm Factory, an accelerator now under construction as BEPC II in Beijing.

Jez San

San helped develop the first 3D graphics accelerator known as the Super FX chip that made Star Fox (released as Starwing in Europe) possible on the Super NES.

Jonathan Legear

On 7 October 2012, Legear was involved in a car accident, where he crashed his car inside an Esso gas station located in Tongeren, having mistaken the accelerator pedal for the brake.

Karmen

KARMEN (Karlsruhe Rutherford Medium Energy Neutrino experiment), accelerator neutrino experiment

National League Division One in 2005

Middlesex Crusaders used their home batting paradise at Southgate to good effect, smashing Nottinghamshire Outlaws bowlers to all corners as they amassed 314 for 7 in 45 overs – Paul Weekes top-scoring with a run-a-ball 106, while Irishman Ed Joyce pushed the accelerator in the final overs with an 18-ball 41 including six boundaries.

Noemie Benczer Koller

At Rutgers she has been a major member of the nuclear physics research group working on the tandem Van de Graaff accelerator, as well as a condensed-matter physicist, performing experiments using the Mössbauer effect, by which she investigated the electronic structure of magnetic materials.

Notion Capital

In 2013, Chandler, along with former Hewlett-Packard divisional chief technology officer Graham York, announced the launch of SeedCloud, a European accelerator targeting Cloud computing startups in such areas as big data and machine learning.

Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club in 2005

The journal covers all theoretical and experimental aspects of nuclear physics and technology, including synchrotron radiation applications, beam line technology, low energy accelerator, ray technology and applications, nuclear chemistry, radiochemistry, and radiopharmaceuticals and nuclear medicine, nuclear electronics and instrumentation, nuclear energy science and engineering.

Pakistan Atomic Research Reactor

Known as a Charged Particle Accelerator (CPA), the nuclear accelerator is a 250 keV Ion accelerator which can deliver all Gaseous ions such as +H, +N, +O, +He, +Ne, +Ar, +Kr, +Xe or molecular ions.

RARAF

RARAF operated at BNL from 1967 until 1980, when it was dismantled to make room for the ISABELLE project, a very large accelerator which was never completed.

René Turlay

From 1962 to 1964 he played a major role in all phases of the memorable experiment at Brookhaven's accelerator where the CP violation phenomenon in weak interactions was discovered.
