The Bevatron ( BEV-ə-tron) was a particle accelerator – specifically, a weak-focusing proton synchrotron – located at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, U.S., which began operations in 1954. The antiproton was discovered there in 1955, resulting in the 1959 Nobel Prize in physics for Emilio Segrè and Owen Chamberlain.
