Collaborate Disseminate
Sometimes, a major discovery is exactly what you were hoping not to find. That’s the case with a team at Penn State who seem to have recently closed the door …read more Continue reading Muon Magnetic Moment Matches Model, Making Major Malaise
Once upon a time, transmutation of the elements was a really big deal. Alchemists drove their patrons near to bankruptcy chasing the philosopher’s stone to no avail, but at least …read more Continue reading Neutrino Transmutation Observed For the First Time
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 …read more Continue reading Worlds Largest Neutrino Detector Is Collecting Data In China
On New York’s Long Island, scientists are building an ambitious machine to tease apart the mysteries held inside atomic nuclei. A major component of that system is the world’s highest voltage electron gun and it’s just aced a six-month test.Continue Re… Continue reading Ray gun accelerates electrons from zero to 500 million mph in two inches
MIT scientists have coaxed atoms into an exotic “edge state” for the first time, allowing them to flow completely friction-free. The breakthrough could lead to better superconductor materials.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Particle phy… Continue reading Superconductivity breakthrough: ‘Edge state’ atoms flow friction-free

Physicists have created the heaviest clumps of antimatter particles ever seen. Known as antihyperhydrogen-4, this strange stuff could help us solve some of the most puzzling physics mysteries.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Antimatter, … Continue reading Heaviest-ever clumps of antimatter created in atom smasher
The subatomic world is hard to image not just because it’s incredibly tiny, but super fast too. Now physicists at the University of Arizona have developed the world’s fastest electron microscope to capture events lasting just one quintillionth of a second.

Supermassive black holes have been known to belch gigantic beams of plasma into space – and now scientists have managed to recreate these fireballs in a lab at CERN.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Black hole, Supermassive black hole, As… Continue reading Plasma fireballs from black holes are now being made here on Earth
Professor Peter Higgs has died aged 94. The theoretical physicist was best known for his prediction of a key elementary particle, the Higgs boson, which earned him the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics soon after its discovery.Continue ReadingCategory: Physi… Continue reading Professor Peter Higgs, renowned for Higgs boson prediction, dies aged 94
