Atom Smasher is an educational game for learning about particle accelerators, elementary particles, and some of the fundamental physics included in these topics. By playing the role of a scientist conducting experiments in a particle accelerator facility, students can set up accelerator experiments, fly with a group of beam particles through the accelerator channels to a target, and discover the fundamental particles and forces of nature. From their position in the accelerator control room, students can access an educational film library, use interactive tutorials that illustrate particles moving through accelerator components, or play the Internet Physics Bowl in competition with three studio participants.
