Recently, a research team led by Professor Li-sheng Geng from Beihang University published a paper titled "Femtoscopy can ...

For a few millionths of a second after the Big Bang, the universe consisted of a hot soup of elementary particles called quarks and gluons. A few microseconds later, those particles began cooling to ...

Quark-gluon plasmas are among the subjects that have been most extensively researched by physicists in recent times. Thanks to the largest particle accelerators in operation today - the Large Hadron ...

Today is a good day for physics. Two new results released today (June 4) have found the Higgs boson popping up along with the heaviest particle ever discovered. And the results could help us better ...

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to probe the fringes of known physics, and now the facility has found particles not behaving as predicted. While it’s still early days, the discovery ...

THERE is something the matter with matter. Around the world, several research groups have reported seeing a particle that does not fit comfortably with our standard picture of matter. As if that ...

The astonishing result, achieved by the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) collaboration, represents the first-ever observation of single top quark production with W and Z bosons, a process known as tWZ ...

Gavin Hesketh is a lecturer in particle physics at University College London, and a member of the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN. He receives funding from the Science and Technology Facilities Council, ...

The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detect rare events on a daily basis, but some are exceptionally rare, such ...
