- Abstract
In recent years, experiments in high-energy physics have shown that one of the most promising means of studying the properties of elementary particles is by colliding beams. First, they open up a region of interaction energies at present unattainable using conventional accelerators. Second, they allow experiments to be performed in extremely clean conditions, when the observed interaction between two colliding particles is not contaminated by the presence of secondary interactions as in the conventional particle accelerator-fixed target scheme. This article describes the electron cooling method applied to proton-antiproton colliding beams.
