Scientists have observed the Higgs boson interacting with the top quark, the heaviest known elementary particle, in an exciting discovery that deepens our understanding of why objects in the universe ...

CU Physics Professor Jamie Nagle is a group leader in a new discovery about the quark-gluon plasma. Researchers at the PHENIX detecter at Brookhaven's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider made an ...

30 Miles Up. Arguing that others may have been quark hunting in the wrong places, British Physicists J. B. Hasted and M.R.C. McDowell have suggested a new area of search.

Researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with collaborators ...

“Heavy-ion collisions at the LHC recreate the quark–gluon plasma in a laboratory setting,” Anthony Badea, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Chicago and one of the lead authors of a paper ...

Researchers from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences have developed a new model incorporating quark-gluon interactions while accounting for nucleon pairing. This ...

Unwilling to wait, McCusker’s team set up a more simple quark trap in a shed behind the University of Sydney’s school of physics. Whenever Geiger counters detected a cosmic shower, they ...

Jamie Nagle: My current research is in the field of experimental high-energy heavy ion physics.The current theory of strong interactions (quantum chromodynamics QCD) predicts that nuclear matter at ...

For the first time, physicists at CERN confirmed quantum entanglement between top and anti-top quarks during proton collisions. This milestone in high-energy particle physics could provide deeper ...

A quark star — or strange star, after the particular type of quark involved — is born. “My personal point of view is that there is probably no such a thing as a pure quark star,” says ...
