Cunfeng Wei, head of nuclear technology and applications at the Institute of High Energy Physics in Beijing, talks to Michael Banks about the close links between particle physics and medical ...
Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider triumphantly announced the discovery of the Higgs boson back in the summer of 2012. Nicknamed “the God particle,” it was the last new undiscovered particle ...
Naples, Italy — Beneath the honking horns and operatic yelling of Naples, the most blissfully chaotic city in Italy, archeologist Raffaella Bosso descends into the deafening silence of an underground ...
Experimental particle physicist Jessica Esquivel explores the beneficial collaboration between artificial intelligence and particle physics that is advancing both fields Detailed view Jessica Esquivel ...

You might have already passed that silly course with a title something like "Introductory Algebra and Trigonometry." It covered a bunch of stuff, but the important part was that the class was a ...
Workshops around the world train science teachers to incorporate particle physics into their classrooms. Picture this: A stationary object such as a vase suddenly explodes, sending fragments flying.
Theoretical physics often involves problems that do not have a simple mathematical solution. This quandary is usually overcome using numerical calculations performed by conventional (classical) ...
