Professor Claudia Ratti explains about quarks and gluons, including the so-called Quark-Gluon Plasma, plus Quantum ...

Physicists have struggled for seven decades with the question of why there is more matter in the universe than antimatter.

In a groundbreaking discovery, scientists have revealed an unprecedented map of the forces acting within a proton. This map ...

In 2023, when Daniel Marx, Deputy Group Leader of the EIC Accelerator Design Group at BNL, traveled to Washington to ...

Scientists have achieved an incredible feat—mapping the forces inside a proton with extreme precision, uncovering the immense ...

Scientists have recently made a significant breakthrough in understanding the structure of matter. For the first time, they have mapped the forces within protons with unprecedented ... Continue Readin ...

Quirks and Quarks8:29Big birds with bitty brains are still kind of bright We've learned a lot about the remarkable intelligence of birds like crows and parrots, but not much work has been done on ...

Do top quarks, nature's heaviest elementary particle, obey Einstein's rules at all times of day and night? Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider have the answer.

This is the force that binds quarks and gluons together to form protons, neutrons and other particles generically called hadrons. Theorists use lattice QCD, a computational method for solving QCD ...

Thus, the direction of the top quarks created by such collisions should change, too. Wildly, that means that the number of quarks created should depend on what time of day the collisions occur!

John McFall, a medal-winning Paralympic athlete, has officially completed training with the European Space Agency and could become the first astronaut with a disability to visit the International ...

Top quarks follow the rules of special relativity day and night. Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that ...
