Summary:
- Physicists have developed a new device called an "electron catapult" that can accelerate electrons to extremely high speeds, reaching up to 92% of the speed of light.
- This electron catapult uses powerful electromagnetic fields to launch the electrons, allowing them to reach these record-breaking velocities.
- The ability to generate such high-speed electrons has potential applications in areas like particle physics research, medical imaging, and the development of advanced particle accelerators.
