CERN’s upgraded detector finds evidence of a one-in-10-billion particle decay
LHCb has found the first single-experiment evidence of a beauty meson decaying into two muons, a process predicted…
A student built a particle detector for just $100; the pocket-sized device can track invisible particles raining down from space at light’s speed; it is now being used in high-altitude balloon missions and major physics experiments
A device that can detect particles arriving from space does not necessarily require a multimillion-dollar laboratory. A compact…
Einstein’s theory of gravity could be shaken by a cold beam of atoms
Researchers at the Swiss institutes of ETH Zurich and Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Villigen have produced an…
