In collisions of argon and scandium atomic nuclei, scientists from the international NA61/SHINE experiment have observed a clear anomaly indicative of a violation of one of the most important ...

An international team of physicists has studied how particles are produced in high-energy electron–proton collisions through the lens of entanglement entropy Entanglement entropy has emerged as a new ...

Observations of the formation of light-nuclei from high-energy collisions may help in the hunt for dark matter. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. Particle collisions at ...

Double parton scattering (DPS) is a hard scattering phenomenon in which two independent partonic interactions occur concurrently in a single high-energy hadron‐hadron collision. This process, ...

Smashing atomic nuclei together at mind-bending speeds recreates the fiery conditions of the early universe and scientists are finally getting a better handle on what happens next. A sweeping new ...
