In their search for more flavors of Higgs bosons, a team of researchers at CERN stumbled across what could be evidence of the smallest matter-antimatter particle ever. The hypoethical particle, known ...

When you receive a present on your birthday, you might be the kind of person who tears off the wrapping paper immediately to see what's inside the box. Or maybe you like to examine the box, guessing ...

Dutch researcher Bram Wijngaarden investigated how bottom quarks are created during collisions between protons and antiprotons. Wijngaarden’s measurements have contributed to a better understanding of ...

The bottom quark may lead physicists on a path to new discoveries. The Standard Model of particle physics has been developed over several decades to describe the properties and interactions of ...

Our Sun is powered by a fundamental phenomenon whereby atoms combine to unleash tremendous amounts of energy. But atoms might not be the only things that participate in this explosive reaction.

Thirty years ago, particle physics delighted in discovering the "bottomonium" family-the set of particles that contain both a bottom quark and an anti-bottom quark but are bound together with ...

The Belle collaboration at the KEK laboratory in Japan has observed a rare process whereby a bottom quark decays into a down quark, researchers announced at the Lepton-Photon symposium in Uppsala in ...
