Detected by Boston College researchers, the axial Higgs mode, and materials that contain it, could support quantum sensors to help answer persistent questions in particle physics The previously ...

The particle was finally discovered on July 4 ... The field quickly, in just fractions of a second, finds a stable configuration, but this in the process breaks its symmetry.

His 1964 theory of a mass-giving particle, which became known as the Higgs boson or the "God particle", earned him and Belgian physicist Francois Englert the 2013 Nobel Prize for Physics.

However, the current methods of reconstructing particle tracks will soon no longer ... Altogether, the network has two ...

It’s via evidence from particle accelerators such at the LHC and its predecessors that we derived our best understanding of the nature of matter: the Standard Model of particle physics.

The primary research focus of CERN — an acronym derived from the French name “Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire” — is particle physics, or “the study of the fundamental ...

The proximity in mass to 2m p is suggestive of nucleon-antinucleon bound states, an idea that has a long history. Before the birth of Quark Model, a nucleon-antinucleon bound state was already ...

In 1964, he theorised the existence of the Higgs Boson, a fundamental force-carrying particle associated with the Higgs field. The Higgs field is a quantum field that gives mass to particles and ...

Peter Higgs, the “truly gifted scientist” who demonstrated the existence of the subatomic particle, has died aged 94. Higgs, an emeritus professor at Edinburgh University, won a Nobel prize ...

Medical records software giant Epic and venture-backed health tech company Particle Health are mired in an ongoing dispute over healthcare data exchange practices. Epic cut off data requests from ...

LONDON (AP) — Nobel prize-winning physicist Peter Higgs, who proposed the existence of the so-called “God particle” that helped explain how matter formed after the Big Bang, has died at age ...
