CMS Sees Quark-Gluon Plasma at LHC

Physicists operating one of the three main particle detectors on the Large Hadron Collider's (LHC) 27-kilometer tunnels announce that they were able to observe a state of matter that they believe permeated the Universe shortly after the Big Bang inflated everything into being.After the quantum fluctuation event ...

ALICE Reveals New Data on Elementary Particles

The ALICE detector on the Large Hadron Collider is helping theoretical physicists understand the world of elementary particles better than ever before. The first discoveries made by the detector have been published already, less than a month after the LHC changed the material it was working with. When the largest par...

Peeking Deeper into Quark-Gluon Plasma

The US Department of Energy (DOE) announced that it awarded a $1.175 million grant to the Bonner Nuclear Laboratory, for conducting research into hot, high-density nuclear matter. The facility, which is located at, and is operated by the Rice University, conducts investigations into the nature of the smallest partic...

Plasma Components Confined Within a Trap

Plasma has two main components, the positive and the negative clouds of gas mixed in different proportions. Neutral plasma containing equal amounts of positive and negative charges is called strongly-coupled plasma and occurs naturally on the surface of neutron stars, the cores of gas giants and may have even been th...

Granular Particles May Experience Liquid-like Behavior

An experiment conducted by a team from the University of Chicago reported a surprising discovery. Grains of sand can behave in a liquid manner under the right conditions. These kinds of experiments are designed to simulate the birth of the universe and the way matter moved in the first seconds after the Big Bang.In t...
