"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — ...

The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.

Recently, I watched a fellow particle physicist talk about a calculation he had pushed to a new height of precision. His tool? A 1980s-era computer program called FORM. Particle physicists use some of ...

Review terms related to atomic structure. Have students make flash cards and quiz one another on terms related to atomic structure. For example, have them define such words as electron, proton, ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the ...

WASHINGTON — A new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine presents an ambitious and comprehensive long-term vision for the field of particle physics to further our ...

The world's largest particle accelerator, slated to go online in 2008, will attempt to create particles that have never been seen before by colliding protons together at near the speed of light. Such ...
