Particle collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can reach temperatures over one hundred thousand times hotter than at the centre of the Sun. Yet, somehow, light atomic nuclei and their ...
People have little connection to particle physics in their everyday lives. Why should they be interested in it? Modern physics has changed everything. We started to understand the universe as a whole ...
For decades, scientists have scavenged for mysterious the “ghost particles” known as neutrinos, which are subatomic particles with no mass and almost no electrical charge. Despite their elusive nature ...
