Recently, a research team led by Professor Li-sheng Geng from Beihang University published a paper titled "Femtoscopy can ...

A new theory-based approach provides access to the minute transverse motion of quarks within protons. Nuclear physicists have developed a new theoretical framework that allows them to calculate a ...

Scientists at CERN have observed a rare phenomenon where a single top quark formed alongside W and Z bosons for the first ...

The strong interaction is one of the fundamental forces of nature, which binds quarks into hadrons such as the proton and the neutron, the building blocks of atoms. According to the quark model, ...

The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detect rare events on a daily basis, but some are exceptionally rare, such ...

Quark coalescer: the LHCb experiment being upgraded several years ago. (Courtesy: Maximilien Brice/CERN) Physicists working on the LHCb experiment have seen evidence that “quark coalescence” plays a ...
