沉寂四年多之后,欧洲核子研究中心(CERN)对外公布了与国际合作者多年调查撰写而成的《未来环形对撞机(FCC)可行性研究报告》,并于4月1日举行了线上媒体发布会,宣告着该项目向着真正落地又迈进了一步。 FCC质子-质子对撞机的艺术设想图,来源 ...
你可能听过反物质这个科学名词,但你可能觉得它离我们很遥远,甚至你可能认为它仅仅存在于实验室或者隔壁的某个平行宇宙中。 但实际上,反物质离你很近。 例如,当你咬下一口香蕉的瞬间,就有可能释放了反物质粒子! 这可不是科幻小说,而是真实发生 ...
The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is back in action after a three-year break for maintenance and an upgrade with more energy, higher intensity beams and greater ...
CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to probe the fringes of known physics, and now the facility has found particles not behaving as predicted. While it’s still early days, the discovery ...
On Tuesday, July 5, at a giant underground compound in Meyrin, Switzerland, physicists announced that they had discovered three "exotic" particles, never before seen by science — a feat accomplished ...
The ATLAS particle detector at CERN. It uses a calorimeter to measure the energies of particles that fly off after each proton collision. Maximilien Brice/CERN An image taken inside the tunnel ...
CERN, which is the acronym in the French language for the European Organization for Nuclear Research, has long been the target of fantastical conspiracy theories. So it should come as no surprise that ...
The home of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest particle accelerator, is getting a new machine — and this time, the whole point is to keep it small. On 18 September, the council that ...
