- NEA consists of a small microchip containing an even smaller vacuum tube which is made up of thousands of individual pillars.
- The main goal of creating these accelerators is to utilize given by accelerated electrons in targeted medical treatments for cancer.
- NEA is similar to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as both create a magnetic field to accelerate particles.
- However, the main acceleration tube of NEA (~0.02 inches long) is 54 million times shorter than the 27-kilometer ERN's LHC.
- They also have applications related to health, environmental monitoring, food quality, etc.
