Mini Museum sells all manner of cool collectibles, from T. Rex teeth and tiny bits from space shuttles to a section of cable from the Brooklyn Bridge. The IC chip from the CRAY-1 from Mini Museum is ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC)--the world's largest, most ambitious atom smasher--hardly needs to be oversold. But even before construction ceased on the $10 billion, 17-mile-long, underground ...

At the Large Hadron Collider, scientists from the University of Kansas achieved a fleeting form of modern-day alchemy — turning lead into gold for just a fraction of a second. Using ultra-peripheral ...

Scientists are exploring the bold concept of building a super-collider around the Moon, an idea that could revolutionise our ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass ...

Matter and antimatter are like mirror opposites: except for their electric charge, they are the same in every respect. Well, almost the same—very occasionally matter and antimatter behave differently ...

ALICE experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, where KU nuclear physicists helped detect gold, briefly, during ultra-peripheral collisions. LAWRENCE — Nuclear physicists working at the Large Hadron ...

The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the baryon class are reported from the LHCb experiment located at the Large ...

A decade in the making, this upgraded detector will explore the properties of the quark-gluon plasma that formed a millionth ...

Although the antimatter qubit won't find use in quantum computing, it will be used to test the differences between matter and antimatter. Physicists at CERN — home of the Large Hadron Collider — have ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: String theory—the idea that particles are not point-like, but instead one-dimensional strings—is a popular theoretical framework that attempts to ...
