In July 2012, physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe triumphantly announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, the long-sought linchpin of the subatomic world. Interacting with Higgs ...

In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of chemical reactions to producing highly reliable weather forecasts. For now, ...

Netflix has appointed Dani Dudeck as chief communications officer. She starts on Jan. 12 and will report to co-CEO Ted Sarandos. Netflix’s prior CCO Rachel Whetstone, who was hired in 2018, departed ...

Dudeck joins at a time when Netflix really needs to get its own messaging out there with regard to the Warner Bros. takeover. By Tony Maglio As it attempts to close an $83 billion deal to acquire ...

Ninety million times a year, when protons crash together at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), they produce, in their wreckage, a top quark and an anti-top quark, the heaviest known elementary particles ...

Every time two beams of particles collide inside an accelerator, the universe lets us in on a little secret. Sometimes it's a particle no one has ever seen. Other times, it's a fleeting glimpse of ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists at MIT discovered a method to create a kind of particle accelerator using a molecule of radium monofluoride. Once excited by lasers in a ...

Laser diffraction is recognized as the most reliable light scattering method for analyzing particle size distributions across a range from submicron to millimeter particles. The diffraction set-up ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing them into tiny targets. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...
