A is of Accelerator, B is for Black hole, C is for Cryostat! Those are just a few of the particle physics lessons your kids will get from Symmetry Magazine’s new lovely, animated alphabet book that ...
The ABCs of Particle Physics is available online and at public libraries and stores near Fermilab and SLAC. For lovers of rhymes and anthropomorphic Higgs bosons, Symmetry presents its first published ...
Particle physics describes the universe at the smallest scale. This includes subatomic particles, like protons and neutrons, as well as elementary particles, like quarks and electrons, which make up ...
The Lightness of Being: Mass, Ether, and the Unification of Forces by Frank Wilczek. Published by Basic Books in the USA, 2008 and by Allen Lane, Penguin in the UK, 2009. Frank Wilczek’s book can be ...
Scientists from around the world are at Brown to discuss what is known, and what needs to be learned, about the long-sought particle discovered a decade ago.
Drexel’s Department of Physics is home to faculty who are leaders in the field of particle physics. Our research spans neutrino properties, neutrino astronomy, and the search for dark matter, and our ...
To say that neutrinos aren’t the easiest particles to study would be a bit of an understatement. Outside of dark matter, there’s not much in particle physics that is as slippery as the elusive “ghost ...
On July 4, 2012, researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland announced with great fanfare that they had ...
Melting elementary particles such as quarks can produce amounts of energy so massive it is equivalent to 10 times that of nuclear fusion, researchers have reported. Quarks are the most basic building ...
Multibillion-dollar research proposal to study Higgs bosons did not make the shortlist for the nation’s next five-year plan, ...
