Located in Hamburg, Germany, this cutting-edge facility is home to the world’s largest and most powerful X-ray laser. Axion ...

Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors (SNSPDs), originally designed for detecting ...

Particle detectors play a crucial role in our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the universe. They allow ...

Carnegie Mellon University's Professor Curtis Meyer and his research colleagues explore an uncharted world inside protons and ...

In a major milestone for particle physics, scientists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have successfully observed top ...

Physicists know from previous experiments that what happens at the nuclear scale to protons and neutrons also affects their ...

In the higher energy picture, composite protons and neutrons (composed of quarks and gluons) interact through quantum chromodynamics (QCD). This residual interaction is the strong nuclear force.

Already in his original work on the properties of high-speed neutrons Chadwick recognised their great effectiveness in producing nuclear transmutations1. Especially after the discovery of ...

IN view of the discrepancy between the values obtained by different workers for the periods and the intensity of radiation emitted by the radio rare earth elements 1–5 after neutron bombardment ...

Fermions, like quarks and leptons, make up matter, while bosons, such as photons and gluons, act as force carriers. These classifications have long been thought to be the limits of particle behavior.

Jets are created when a quark or gluon within a proton or neutron in one of RHIC’s ion beams collides intensely with a quark or gluon in the nuclear particles that make up the beam traveling in the ...

ABSTRACT: We present a theoretical model for detecting axions from neutron stars in a QCD phase of quark matter. The axions would be produced from a quark-antiquark pair u u ¯ or d d ¯ , in loop(s) ...
