It's not quite a do-it-yourself particle accelerator for the home, but as part of an outreach project at the Niels Bohr Institute, Physics postdoc Sascha Hehlhase has assembled a stunning model of Continue reading…
It's not the Higgs, but the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has discovered a new boson by the name Chi-b (3P). As explained to the BBC, the new particle is a more excited state of Chi particles already Continue reading…
At the SuperComputing 2011 conference in Seattle, CERN collaborated with a number of universities to develop an internet link at speeds nearing the limit of current technology. Using a pre-existing Continue reading…
On Tuesday, teams working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland are expected to present evidence that the Higgs boson particle has been glimpsed. However, the evidence will not be Continue reading…
