Particle beam technology
Particle beam technology uses high-energy streams of particles, such as protons or electrons, directed precisely at target materials. These beams are generated using accelerators that increase particle speed to extremely high energies. When the particles hit their target, they can modify, analyze, or destroy materials at a microscopic level. This technology is used in applications like cancer treatment (radiation therapy), material testing, and scientific research, offering precise control over energy delivery without damaging surrounding areas. It is a powerful tool for manipulating matter with accuracy and minimal collateral impact.
