Astrophysicists are closing in on one of the strangest possibilities in stellar evolution, a compact remnant that might sit ...

In their search for more flavors of Higgs bosons, a team of researchers at CERN stumbled across what could be evidence of the smallest matter-antimatter particle ever. The hypoethical particle, known ...

Researchers from the University of Rochester have helped measure the elusive top quark with unparalleled precision, and the surprising results affect everything from the Higgs boson, nicknamed the ...

Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have detected a phenomenon that happens only every trillion proton collisions, after observing the production of a single top quark along with a W and ...

Trillions of times smaller than a grain of sand and smaller than an atomic proton or neutron, quarks are among the smallest particles in the universe. They are essentially building blocks for ...

July 21, 2003--At the Conference on the Intersections of Particle and Nuclear Physics held May 2003 in New York City, researcher Stepan Stepanyan from the DOE Office of Science's Thomas Jefferson ...

Observational first: physicists have used the ATLAS experiment at CERN to observe the production of top-quark and photon pairs. (Courtesy: CERN) For the first time, particle physicists have observed ...

It hasn't existed since the beginning of time itself, but now scientists have managed to create what they call quark soup. This substance is believed to be the smallest, hottest, and densest state of ...

Since its inception in 2008, the LHC (large hadron collider) at CERN has been a key player in pushing the boundaries of particle physics research. Consisting of four main experiments, the circular ...
