The theory describes quarks as being roped together by force-carrying particles called gluons. Each quark and each gluon has one of three types of “color” charge, labeled red, green and blue; these ...

The discovery of two entangled quarks at the large Hadron Collider is the highest-energy observation of entanglement ever made. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Quantum entanglement has made its way to the top. Scientists have measured the strange quantum phenomenon of entanglement in top quarks, the heaviest fundamental subatomic particles known. It’s the ...

Protons may be intrinsically charming. The subatomic particles are a mash-up of three lighter particles called quarks: two of the type known as up quarks and one down quark. But physicists have ...

Quirks & Quarks celebrates its 50th anniversary this week, looking back at a half century of science and peering forward to the next 50 years. In 1975, when David Suzuki introduced the first episode ...
