Using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a team of researchers recently tested whether top quarks also follow the special ...

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

The formation and experimental detection of such a state (called the quark-gluon plasma or QGP) is the primary objective of high-energy nuclear physics. Dennis Perepelitsa: I study the properties of ...

Through QCD we can describe the proton as a superposition of quark-gluon states that can include states of different sizes ... Probing Nuclear Structure and Testing the Standard Model of Particle ...

In the first study of its kind at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the CMS collaboration has tested whether top quarks adhere ...

The Standard Model of particle physics takes this motto to heart: it contains three so-called generations of elementary particles. Take the quarks as an example. In addition to the pair of quark ...

And why that's James Joyce. Surely, you've heard of quarks. In theoretical physics, the term quark denotes an elementary particle – a fundamental component of matter. The name itself was first used ...

Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP): A state of matter ... Hydrodynamics: A branch of physics that studies the motion of fluids and the forces acting on them, often used to describe the behavior of matter ...

Feynman's Caltech rival and colleague Murray Gell-Mann had yet to propose the quark model of particle physics, and scanning probe microscopes and carbon nanotubes were still decades away.

Looking for dark matter recoiling off nuclei in the Lux-Zeplin experiment. Flavour Physics and Beyond Studying quark and lepton transitions to provide insights into the structure of the standard model ...

a DOE Office of Science user facility for nuclear physics research that began operating at Brookhaven Lab in 2000. Jets are created when a quark or gluon within a proton or neutron in one of RHIC ...
