But amid oodles of particle collisions, statistical fluctuations are bound to arise, so a 1-in-1,000 deviation doesn’t count as hard proof of a break with the standard model.

CMS employed machine learning to probe rare Higgs decays into charm quarks. The search produced the most stringent limits so ...

It includes six flavours of quark, their six antimatter counterparts and several other elementary particles, including electrons and photons. The standard model also includes rules for how quarks ...

Researchers are trying to explain their anomalous findings. Their larger experiment is an ongoing investigation of CP ...

Pentaquarks do not fit into the traditional quark model of hadrons, but understanding these exotic new particles is offering fresh insights into the subtleties of the strong interaction Five quarks In ...

For the first time, particle physicists have observed the simultaneous production of a photon and a top quark. The milestone was achieved by the ATLAS collaboration, which operates a giant detector at ...

He decided to see if there were a better way to calculate the mass of the top quark from the measurements already collected at Fermilab’s particle accelerator.

Quark study breaks logjam between theory, experimentUniversity of Chicago scientists have solved a 20-year-old puzzle in particle physics using data from an experiment conducted for an entirely ...

Two ways of approximating the ultra-complicated math that governs quark particles have recently come into conflict, leaving physicists unsure what their decades-old theory predicts.

A quark like no other Date: January 18, 2017 Source: University of Iowa Summary: A physicist is at the forefront of the search to confirm the existence of a particle believed to give mass to all ...

Researchers from the University of Rochester have helped measure the elusive top quark with unparalleled precision, and the surprising results affect everything from the Higgs boson, nicknamed the ...
