Carnegie Mellon University's Professor Curtis Meyer and his research colleagues explore an uncharted world inside protons and ...

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

Physicists know from previous experiments that what happens at the nuclear scale to protons and neutrons also affects their ...

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 ...

Mark Thomson is professor of experimental particle physics at the University of Cambridge and was executive chair of the UK’s Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) until his confirmation as ...

These two properties of axions mean that they are exceptionally good at collapsing down to incredibly high densities, pulled ...

Einstein’s special relativity, along with quantum mechanics, forms the foundation of the Standard Model of particle physics. A key principle of this theory is Lorentz ... In this case, a dependence on ...

Using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a team of researchers recently tested whether top quarks also follow the special theory of relativity. The top quark is the heaviest known f ...

ABSTRACT: We present a theoretical model for detecting axions from neutron stars in a QCD phase of quark matter. The axions would be produced from a quark-antiquark pair u u ¯ or d d ¯ , in loop(s) ...
