A type physics research machine that brings moving particles into collision with one another for the purpose of studying the outcome As opposed to a fixed-target machine, which smashes moving particles into a stationary object
An accelerator in which two beams traveling in opposite directions are steered together to provide high-energy collisions between the particles in one beam and those in the other
