In this video, we explore the fundamental forces of nature and their interactions with particles, structured as follows: 0:00 ...
The universe is a complex and intricate place. We can move easily through air and yet not through a wall. The sun transmutes one element to another, bathing our planet in warmth and light. Radio waves ...
The Standard Model of particles and interactions is remarkably successful for a theory everyone knows is missing big pieces. It accounts for the everyday stuff we know like protons, neutrons, ...
Particle physics is difficult. It takes years of study in order to truly grasp it. Moreover, there is still a lot that even the most experienced experts don’t understand (a whole lot, in fact). And ...
The Henryk Niewodniczanski Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences Electrons with 'colleagues' - other leptons - are one of many products of collisions observed in the LHCb experiment ...
A research team led by Rice University physicist Frank Geurts has successfully measured the temperature of quark-gluon plasma ...
“I was actually shaking,” said Mitesh Patel, a particle physicist at Imperial College, London, as he describes the moment he saw the results. “I realised this was probably the most exciting thing I’ve ...
Elisabetta Barberio receives funding from the ARC. So what are leptons? First, let’s start with the basics. Matter is made up of atoms, and atoms are made of electrons and nuclei, bound by the ...
