Esperimenti a fasci di collisione

In colliding beam experiments all the beam energy is available for the creation of new matter, but the number of collisions is smaller.

At CERN colliding beam experiments use electrons against positrons, as in LEP, and protons against antiprotons as in the SPS. In the future LHC machine, very high energy protons will collide against protons, and even heavy ions (like the nuclei of lead) against heavy ions.
