Subatomic particles called muons are born from cosmic rays bombarding the atmosphere. Because muons can penetrate objects, scientists are using them to peek inside volcanoes. This technique ...

This paper demonstrates a hybrid particle classification and condensation device based on both aerodynamics and electrostatics using a micro virtual impactor (muVI). The muVI is capable of classifying ...

Iowa State University researchers have helped demonstrate the existence of a subatomic structure once thought unlikely to exist. James Vary, a professor of physics and astronomy, and Andrey ...

The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the baryon class are reported from the LHCb experiment located at the Large ...

The LHC is a 17-mile long underground “racetrack” that accelerates two opposing beams of particles to speeds of 99.9999 percent the speed of light. The particles race around the LHC on a crash ...
