Abstract

The developing understanding of particle physics, especially in the past 60 or so years, has been largely paced by the evolution of high-energy accelerators and detectors. We restrict ourselves here to describing crucial developments in accelerators related to high-energy particle collisions. Similarly, discussion of detectors will be restricted to those associated with the accelerators and colliders covered.
