ALT A diagram of a continuous subsurface tritium monitoring detector. The image shows three storage tanks on the surface near a water body. A detector is illustrated underground, with a zoomed section highlighting its components. The image is labeled with US patent number 12,092,786 at the top right.

ALT Three hands hold a badge with "Program Sheriff" on the front.

ALT Two fusion reactions are illustrated. Top: Lithium-5 decays into deuterium and helium-3, emitting a proton and helium-4 with 14.7 MeV and 3.6 MeV energy. Bottom: Helium-5 decays into deuterium and tritium, emitting a neutron and helium-4 with 14.1 MeV and 3.5 MeV energy.

ALT A close-up of scientific equipment featuring a complex assembly of gold-plated metal components, connected by small wires and mounted on a blue base. The apparatus appears to be set up for precision measurements or experiments.

ALT Two people stand in a technical laboratory environment with electronic equipment and computer monitors displaying graphs in the background.

ALT A small, rectangular copper component is placed on a black, perforated surface in a laboratory setting.

ALT A large, circular industrial facility houses complex machinery, including colorful equipment and metal structures. Curved red tracks run along the floor, and a yellow overhead crane is visible.

ALT Diagram illustrating electron scattering. Shows helicity with two spheres, one blue and one pink, labeled Helicity -1 and Helicity +1. An electron spin is depicted, impacting a proton via a virtual photon, emitting a pi meson and a scattered electron.

ALT A close-up view inside a cavity, showing a series of concentric rings leading towards a bright light source at the end.

ALT An illustration that shows how the strong interaction evolves with distance, generating more than 98% of the ground and excited state of the nucleon masses.

ALT This Feynman diagram illustrates the scattering of a photon, represented by a blue squiggly line, with a proton, represented by a straight black line. There interaction area is a yellow line, which produces a scattered proton and a meson. This meson (red line) decays into two other mesons (dotted lines) before decaying into a set of four photons (straight blue lines). (Jefferson Lab illustration)
