For decades, physicists have relied on the principle of symmetry to simplify and understand the complex behaviors of subatomic particles. Symmetry in physics basically means that some rules of nature ...

In this video, we explore the fundamental forces of nature and their interactions with particles, structured as follows: 0:00 ...

A research team led by Rice University physicist Frank Geurts has successfully measured the temperature of quark-gluon plasma ...

Top result: An artist's impression of top-quark entanglement. The line between the particles emphasizes the non-separability of the top-quark pair, which is produced by LHC collisions and recorded by ...

Lattice gauge theory, or lattice QCD, is a calculation method that helps scientists make predictions about the behavior of quarks at low energies. Quarks are particles found inside every atomic ...

Physics at the smallest scales is a challenge of observation: Particles are often fleeting, and the forces that govern their behavior are nearly imperceptible. But now, by exploiting decades-old data ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Polarized proton containing spinning quarks and gluons (represented by right-handed and left-handed spirals). The negative Δg solutions (blue) are disfavored relative to the positive Δg solutions (red ...

A ccording to Alfred Nobel's will, the Nobel Prize in Physics was to go to "the person who shall have made the most important ...

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of CBC’s Quirks & Quarks, host Bob McDonald gathered six of Canada’s top scientists to ...

Professor of Physics Tom Mehen is remembered as a pioneer in the field of nuclear and theoretical physics and an inspiring mentor who formed lasting connections with his students. Mehen, 54, died Dec.
