In the last eight decades,they have evolved enormously and have fundamentally changed the way we live, think and work. Accelerators are the most powerful microscopes for viewing the tiniest inner structure of cells, genes, molecules, atoms and their constituents such as protons, neutrons, electrons, neutrinos and quarks. This opens up a whole new world for materials science, chemistry and molecular biology. Accelerators with megawatt beam power may ultimately solve a critical problem faced by our society, namely, the treatment of 606 $aParticle accelerators 606 $aColliders (Nuclear physics) 615 0$aParticle accelerators. 615 0$aColliders (Nuclear physics) 676 $a579.7 701 $aChao$b Alex$0345495 701 $aChou$b Weiren$01502888 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781099103321 996 $aReviews of accelerator science and technology$93730961 997 $aUNINA
