Jonathan L Rosner, a distinguished theoretical physicist and professor emeritus at the University of Chicago, passed away on ...
Quantum sensors have become important tools in low-energy particle physics. Michael Doser explores opportunities to exploit their unparalleled precision at higher energies. Quantum sensitivity The ...
David Wallace argues for the ‘decoherent view’ of quantum mechanics, where at the fundamental level there is neither probability nor wavefunction collapse – and for its purest incarnation, the ...
CERN’s Large Hadron Collider continues to deliver surprises. While searching for additional Higgs bosons, the CMS collaboration may have instead uncovered evidence for the smallest composite particle ...
With a new measurement imminent, the Courier explores the experimental results and theoretical calculations used to predict ‘muon g-2’ – one of particle physics’ most precisely known quantities and ...
Marek Karliner and Jonathan Rosner ask what makes tetraquarks and pentaquarks tick, revealing them to be at times exotic compact states, at times hadronic molecules and at times both – with much still ...
Patrick Koppenburg and Marco Pappagallo survey the 23 exotic hadrons discovered at the LHC so far. Twenty-three exotic states Five pentaquarks and 18 tetraquarks have been discovered so far at the LHC ...
Early-career researchers tell the Courier what they think is the key strategic issue for the future of high-energy physics. Accelerating into the future Seventy years after construction began on ...
First developed for the Large Hadron Collider, hybrid pixel detectors are now changing the face of X-ray imaging in medical practice. The next challenge is for a diverse range of societal applications ...
Geared for discovery more so than delicacy, the LHC is defying expectations by rivalling lepton colliders for precision. Guillelmo Gomez-Ceballos and Jan Kretzschmar identify five measurements of the ...
