Over the weekend Shane Gillis made his return to "Saturday Night Live" as host for the second time since he was fired from ...

Protons sit in the nuclei of all atoms, but they are not fundamental particles: They are made of three quarks held together by the strong nuclear force. The strength of this interaction is ...

Two other detectors at the LHC are more specialised: the LHCb, which studies the symmetry between matter and antimatter, and ALICE, which investigates the properties of the primordial state of quarks ...

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!

On this week's episode of Quirks & Quarks with Bob McDonald: Scientists are recruiting elephant seals to learn more about the oceans' twilight zone Quirks and Quarks8:29Scientists are recruiting ...

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 ...

Scientists have now mapped the forces acting inside a proton, showing in unprecedented detail how quarks—the tiny particles within—respond when hit by high-energy photons. The international ...

We’re not just researching AI – —we’re applying it, commercialising it, and embedding it into our education.” A highlight of the evening was a video appearance by NASA robotics engineer and Queen Mary ...

A simplified visualisation of the 23 exotic hadrons discovered so far at the LHC. Each particle contains at least one charm quark and a mixture of up, down and strange quarks. Quark and hadron masses ...

Premier League releases VAR statement on Everton’s overturned penalty against Manchester United Reeves warned cash Isa raid risks triggering mortgage crisis Asteroid YR4 impact odds plummet as ...

Muons interact directly with other SM particles via electromagnetism (photons) and the weak force (W and Z bosons, and the Higgs particle). All quarks and leptons – such as electrons and muons – have ...
