Recreating Big Bang matter on Earth 12 Novembro, 2020
Recreating Big Bang matter on Earth By: Ana Lopes 13 NOVEMBER, 2020 Our fifth story in the LHC Physics at Ten series looks at how the LHC has recreated and greatly advanced our knowledge of the state of matter that is believed to have existed shortly after the Big Bang First collisions of Pb+Pb seen […]
A transportable antiproton trap to unlock the secrets of antimatter 3 Novembro, 2020
A transportable antiproton trap to unlock the secrets of antimatter Ana Lopes abelchio Tue, 11/03/2020 - 14:46 Shows the layout of the trap (Image: CERN) The BASE collaboration at CERN has bagged more than one first in antimatter research. For example, it made the first ever more precise measurement for antimatter than for matter, it […]
ATLAS sets new limits on exotic types of long-lived particles 27 Outubro, 2020
ATLAS sets new limits on exotic types of long-lived particles abelchio Tue, 10/27/2020 - 16:26 ATLAS image (Image: CERN) Scientists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are finding novel ways to search for new particles. Elusive, long-lived particles could be decaying into other particles away from the LHC collision point – leaving an unusual signature […]
CMS sees evidence of top quarks in collisions between heavy nuclei 9 Outubro, 2020
CMS sees evidence of top quarks in collisions between heavy nuclei Ana Lopes abelchio Fri, 10/09/2020 - 09:10 Event display of a candidate tt¯ event measured in PbPb collisions where each top quark decays into a bottom quark and a W boson. The b quarks and W bosons, in turn, produce jets and leptons, respectively. […]
LHCb sees new form of matter–antimatter asymmetry in strange beauty particles 6 Outubro, 2020
LHCb sees new form of matter–antimatter asymmetry in strange beauty particles Ana Lopes abelchio Tue, 10/06/2020 - 13:43 The observed excess of matter over antimatter in the Universe is an enduring puzzle in physics. The imbalance implies a difference in the behaviour of matter and antimatter particles. This difference, or “asymmetry”, is known as CP […]
A roadmap for the future 2 Outubro, 2020
A roadmap for the future achintya Fri, 10/02/2020 - 16:25 What are the scientific priorities and future objectives of particle physics? Which instruments offer the best potential to achieve these objectives? And which technologies need to be developed to build such instruments? These are the main questions addressed by the European Strategy for Particle Physics […]
NA63 makes crystal-clear study of radiation reaction 21 Setembro, 2020
NA63 makes crystal-clear study of radiation reaction Ana Lopes abelchio Mon, 09/21/2020 - 16:50 Place a charged particle in an electromagnetic field and the particle will accelerate and give off radiation. Typically, the emitted radiation has little effect on the particle’s motion. However, if the acceleration is extremely large, as is the case for high-energy […]
Philippe Mermod (1978 – 2020) 26 Agosto, 2020
Philippe Mermod (1978 – 2020) cmenard Wed, 08/26/2020 - 15:40 It is with great sadness that we inform you that Philippe Mermod, a member of the ATLAS and SHiP collaborations at CERN, passed away on 20 August 2020. Philippe was born in Geneva in 1978 He obtained his Master’s degree in 2002 from the […]
LHCb discovers first “open-charm” tetraquark 20 Agosto, 2020
LHCb discovers first “open-charm” tetraquark Achintya Rao achintya Thu, 08/20/2020 - 13:06 Tetraquark c̄uds̄ (Image: CERN) The LHCb experiment at CERN has developed a penchant for finding exotic combinations of quarks, the elementary particles that come together to give us composite particles such as the more familiar proton and neutron. In particular, LHCb has observed […]
NA62 sees first significant evidence of rare process 29 Julho, 2020
NA62 sees first significant evidence of rare process Achintya Rao achintya Wed, 07/29/2020 - 11:39 NA62 Hall overview (Image: CERN) Physicists look for new physics phenomena in many ways. One is by observing and measuring processes that are predicted to be extremely rare and looking for differences between data and theoretical predictions. The NA62 detector […]
