Because Higgs bosons and top quarks are short-lived particles, they almost immediately transform into more-stable daughter particles, many of which also decay. This rapid transition from one ...

Quarks combine together to form protons and neutrons, with types of leptons including neutrinos and the electron. There are also four bosons, or force carriers, which are responsible for ...

In a recent article published in Nature, the ATLAS collaboration reported on the Observation of quantum entanglement with top ...

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

Quarks and leptons are fermions — the elementary particles that make up matter. Another group of particles, known as bosons, act as "force carriers." ...

The ATLAS team essentially reanalyzed its 2011 data sample of W bosons on which their 2018 measurement result was based, using improved data-fitting techniques to determine the mass that do a ...

The ATLAS and CMS experiments have successfully detected the production of a quartet of top quarks during high-energy proton collisions inside the Large Hadron Collider. Four-top production is 4,000 ...

When CMS researchers were trying to find new Higgs bosons, they measured the probability of tt-bar production from experiments conducted in 2016-2018, because the strong interactions top quarks ...

The result, reported at the Rencontres de Moriond conference in the Italian Alps this week, suggest that top quarks—the heaviest and shortest lived of all the elementary particles—can ...

Spot the difference: (left) the supermassive black hole at the heart of the galaxy M87 and (right) a dense state of subatomic gluons created in collisions of atomic nuclei.
