Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon ...
Particles rush through a long tunnel in the Large Hadron Collider. Maximilien Brice/CERN, CC BY-SA When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics ...
In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
Seventeen miles of underground tunnel, thousands of superconducting magnets, and protons whipped to a fraction below light ...
This article was originally featured on The Conversation. When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics experiments like the Large Hadron Collider ...
Okay, CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) might have uncovered the Higgs boson and helped redefine our concept of physical reality, but what has it done for us lately? How about a side hustle heating ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its associated experiments undergo an annual, multi-week reset and calibration procedure following a winter hibernation period, essential for accurate data ...
The old fantasy of transforming lead into gold is now a reality, made possible by some wildly inefficient physics at the ...
In effect, it’s lab-grown gold, but at billions of dollars for a few atoms, it’s unlikely to shake the gold market.
An MIT physics professor said it was completely normal that one of the hundreds of transformers failed a day after the Large Hadron Collider’s first test last week. According to a statement from CERN ...
While smashing lead atoms into each other at extremely high speeds in an effort to mimic the state of the universe just after ...
