The ABCs of Particle Physics is available online and at public libraries and stores near Fermilab and SLAC. For lovers of rhymes and anthropomorphic Higgs bosons, Symmetry presents its first published ...

Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really precision tools that use electric fields and magnets to steer tiny beams of matter ...

A is of Accelerator, B is for Black hole, C is for Cryostat! Those are just a few of the particle physics lessons your kids will get from Symmetry Magazine’s new lovely, animated alphabet book that ...

QUARKS These particles make up protons, neutrons and a veritable zoo of lesser-known particles. They have never been observed in isolation. Electric charge: +2/3 Mass: 2 MeV Constituent of ordinary ...

How the world of the smallest particles is structured, what is known about fundamental forces, and what particles have to do ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered a new particle in their work on the LHC beauty (LHCb) experiment. The Standard Model of particle physics predicts that particles like ...

If we’re ever going to truly understand how our Universe works, we’ll need to take lots of different measurements, but measuring can be one of science’s most difficult tasks. How, for example, do ...

The mind-bending experiments taking place in particle accelerators around the world, including the Large Hadron Collider. Quarks, munons, bosons, and dark matter galore. By Andrew Paul By Andrew Paul ...

Drexel’s Department of Physics is home to faculty who are leaders in the field of particle physics. Our research spans neutrino properties, neutrino astronomy, and the search for dark matter, and our ...
