Construction begins on massive underground neutrino experiment designed to unlock the secrets of the Universe
Installation crews with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory(Fermilab) and CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, are working alongside the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) to begin building massive cryostats, giant insulated containers designed to hold liquid argon at an extremely cold temperature, for the leading-edge Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). The work is happening nearly 1.5 kilometres

LHCb finds evidence of one-in-ten-billion particle decay
They say good things come to those who wait, and the LHCb Collaboration’s latest result marks a major milestone in a decades-long search. As announced in a seminar held at CERN today, the Collaboration has found evidence of a one-in-ten-billion decay of a beauty particle, becoming the first to do so using data from a single experiment.

In the wake of partons
Today, almost all the quarks in our Universe are neatly organised into larger particles, glued together by aptly named gluons. For the first few millionths of a second after the Big Bang, however, quarks and gluons were not confined, forming instead a state of matter known as a quark–gluon plasma (QGP). By studying the QGP
