A simple concept of decay and fission of "magnetic quivers" helps to clarify complex quantum physics and mathematical structures. An international research team led by Marcus Sperling, a project ...

The detection of longitudinally polarized W boson production at the Large Hadron Collider is an important step towards understanding how the primordial electroweak symmetry broke, giving rise to the ...

Secondary particle tracks recorded during a proton collision inside the ATLAS detector, indicating the presence of a single Higgs boson in the event. Since the launch of the Large Hadron Collider, ...

The Higgs boson (blue) may be created by the interaction of gluons (yellow) during proton collisions. Protons consist of two up quarks (red) and one down quark (purple), bound by gluons so strongly ...

How many kinds of elementary particles should I say there are? In experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, physicists smash ...

Peter Higgs stands in front of a photograph of the Large Hadron Collider at the Science Museum in London in 2013. The year before, researchers smashing protons together at the collidor had discovered ...

Nobel Laureate Peter Higgs died earlier this year. Twelve years ago this week, physicists discovered the particle that bears his name. When researchers at the Large Hadron Collider announced the ...
