Abstract: In high energy physics experiments, tracking and vertexing is nowadays mostly done using semiconductor detectors. Among the employed detectors are hybrid pixel sensors, passive sensors and ...
Ben Carlson, assistant professor of physics at Westmont, explores the scientific foundations of today’s most pressing energy and climate issues in a ...
Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...
The ALICE Collaboration is a winner of the 2025 Gizmodo Science Fair for transforming lead into gold for a fraction of a second and exposing the strange physics that goes on inside the Large Hadron ...
Ask the publishers to restore access to 500,000+ books. Can You Chip In? We’re celebrating our 1 trillionth archived web page. If you find our library useful, learn how you can help us fundraise! Can ...
Abstract: Centralized particle swarm optimization (PSO) does not fully exploit the potential of distributed or parallel computing and suffers from single-point-of-failure. Particularly, each particle ...
Our Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology (IPPP) will celebrate its 25th anniversary on 24-25 September, recognising a quarter-century of innovative research, global collaboration, and academic ...
An international collaboration has developed a new diagnostic technique for measuring ultra-short particle beams at STFC's Central Laser Facility. This collaboration is led by the University of ...
