For example, the mass of the top quark is known, and its polarization in single-top events, expected to be close to 100%, can be used to advantage. Information is also extracted from the debris ...

As if atoms weren’t already mind-blowingly small, never mind subatomic particles, CERN researchers in the CMS Collaboration were sifting through data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and ...

Additional Higgs-like particles are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model. If they exist, such particles are expected to interact most strongly with the singularly massive top quark, ...

Top observation CERN’s ATLAS experiment has confirmed that heavy quark–antiquark pairs are created in the collision of lead ions. (Courtesy: CERN/ATLAS Collaboration) Physicists working on the ATLAS ...

If they exist, such particles are expected to interact most strongly with the singularly massive top quark, which weighs in at 184 times the mass of the proton. And if they are massive enough to ...
