or their decay products, sail out freely to be counted by RHIC's detectors. But if the collisions do form a QGP, the kicked-free quark or gluon, despite its energy, gets caught up in interactions ...

In a major milestone for particle physics, scientists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have successfully observed top ...

More than a decade after its groundbreaking discovery, the Higgs boson continues to captivate the scientific community. This elusive particle, famously nicknamed the “God particle,” plays ... Continue ...

This high-density quark behavior is called color superconductivity. The strength of pairing inside a color superconductor is difficult to calculate, but scientists have long known the strength's ...

Sheldon Glashow recalls the events surrounding a remarkable decade of model building and discovery between 1964 and 1974.

Feb. 4, 2025 — Using data from the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, scientists have found a huge exoplanet and a brown dwarf. This is the first time a planet has been uniquely discovered by ...
