Learn how physicists recreated the early universe’s primordial soup, known as quark-gluon plasma, and discovered how it responds when particles race through it.
In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
Scientists have found new evidence that a pattern of “flow” observed in particles streaming ...
In their search for more flavors of Higgs bosons, a team of researchers at CERN stumbled across what could be evidence of the smallest matter-antimatter particle ever. The hypoethical particle, known ...
