Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) in China has successfully maintained a steady-state high-confinement plasma operation for 1,066 seconds breaking its own earlier record of...
Big Bang produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter which should have annihilated each other leaving behind an empty universe. However, matter survived and...
Particle accelerators are used as research tools for the study of very early universe. Hadron colliders (particularly CERN’s Large Hadron Collider LHC) and electron-positron...
The researchers at CERN have succeeded in observing quantum entanglement between “top quarks” and at the highest energies. This was first reported in September 2023...
In a recently published report, the Will Lab team of Columbia University reports success in crossing in BEC threshold and creation of Bose-Eienstein condensate...
CERN’s seven decades of scientific journey has been marked by milestones like "discovery of fundamental particles W boson and Z boson responsible for weak...
‘Fusion Ignition’ achieved first in December 2022 has been demonstrated another three times to date at National Ignition Facility (NIF) of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory...
Merger of two black holes has three stages: inspiral, merger and ringdown phases. Characteristic gravitational waves are emitted in each phase. The last ringdown phase...
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2023 has been awarded to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier "for experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses...
Matter is subject to gravitational attraction. Einstein’s general relativity had predicted that antimatter also should fall to Earth in the same way. However, there...
Oxygen-28 (28O), the heaviest rare isotope of oxygen has been detected for the first time by Japanese researchers. Unexpectedly it was found to be short-lived...
