The next head of Europe's CERN physics laboratory said Thursday that he favored moving forward with plans for a giant ...

Combining these two concepts would result in a tagged neutrino beam with full particle identification. At the moment, a feasibility study is under way to find a suitable site for a possible first ...

The 2013 prize for the discovery of Higgs boson (hyped as the God particle) recognised the insight into how particles acquire mass. Consider another example. In 1964, a Nobel Prize was given for ...

In the nucleus, neutrons can be stable. Free neutrons, however, decay after a short while. Credit: Oliver Diekmann, TU Wien How long do neutrons live? Different measurement results contradict each ...

With PDF functions for the atomic nucleus, it is possible to determine experimentally measurable parameters, such as the probability of a specific particle being created in an electron or proton ...

In a speech in Moncton, N.B., Blaine Higgs said the fundamental premise of the lawsuit “is whether the land [title] is ceded or unceded, and certainly we have evidence to say it was ceded many ...

The workload, fast pace and pressures of our professional lives can require performance levels similar to those of a competitive athlete. While challenges can be stimulating and motivating, as time ...

If researchers can figure those out, the new information may help build a more complete standard model of particle physics, as well as expand our knowledge of the inner workings of planets ...
