Nine research teams are participating in the Faculty Undergraduate Summer Engagement (FUSE) program funded by the Center for ...

The collisions will happen under enough heat and pressure to melt protons and neutrons and release their components (quarks ...

Thanks to modern technological wizardry, it’s possible to produce a similar effect back in the lab, allowing scientists to ...

Although top quarks are routinely produced in high-energy proton collisions at the LHC, they’re notoriously unstable and decay in less than a trillionth of a trillionth of a second, earning a ...

T-symmetry offers insights into the nature of time, revealing how fundamental physical laws remain invariant under time ...

The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top ...

The world’s most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, is entering exciting new territory. For the first time ever, the LHC is smashing together protons and oxygen ...

Far lighter than other ions collided at the LHC, oxygen (and neon) could tell us about conditions in the early universe.

The British Science Association, founders of the British Science Festival, has announced an exciting and diverse programme of ...
