Imagine a particle so elusive, so rare, that it's difficult even to catch a glimpse of it. That's the challenge researchers face when they try to study the Higgs boson, a fundamental particle—also ...
Scientists search for rare decays to test their understanding of how matter behaves. Rare particle decays could provide a unique glimpse of subatomic processes that elude the direct reach of even the ...
Scientists at CERN have reported on their first significant evidence for a process predicted by theory, paving the way for searches for evidence of new physics in particle processes that could explain ...
