The LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is adding a new particle to its family of exotic matter. In the last seven years, the LHCb experiment at CERN has detected about a dozen types of ...
Baryons, composite particles made up of three quarks bound together via the so-called strong force, make up the most visible matter and have thus been the focus of numerous physics studies. Studying ...
Two of the general purpose detectors at the LHC, ATLAS and CMS, tend to keep a high profile, as they're designed to be able to spot anything that comes out of the collisions—the Higgs, dark matter, or ...
A new result from the LHCb experiment could be an early indicator of an inconsistency in the Standard Model. The subatomic universe is an intricate mosaic of particles and forces. The Standard Model ...
The best evidence yet for the existence of a new type of particle called a pentaquark has been unveiled by physicists working on the LHCb experiment on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN.
A new pentaquark – an exotic hadron comprising five quarks – has been discovered by physicists working on the LHCb experiment at CERN. LHCb scientists have also found that a feature in their data that ...
Physicists are part of a team that has announced 'intriguing' results that potentially cannot be explained by our current laws of nature. Imperial physicists are part of a team that has announced ...
A new review examines the three decades of the LHCb experiment, its achievements and future potential. A new review published in EPJ H by Clara Matteuzzi, Research Director at the National Institute ...
The LHCb collaboration at CERN* today submitted a paper [http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.6173] to Physical Review Letters on the first observation of matter-antimatter ...
The LHCb collaboration is far less famous than CMS or ATLAS, but the particles and antiparticles they produce, containing charm and bottom quarks, holds new physics hints that the other detectors ...
It is unusual for TV news to open with a story about physics, but it happened on July 4, 2012, when all around the world stations chose to devote prime time to breaking news from Geneva: a search of ...
