The Standard Model is a kind of periodic table of the elements for particle physics. But instead of listing the chemical elements, it lists the fundamental particles that make up the atoms that make ...

CERN scientists at the world’s largest particle accelerator have made a unique antimatter breakthrough, which they believe ...

The discovery provides new ways to address why the elementary particles that make up matter fall into the neat patterns described by the Standard Model of particle physics ... of its antimatter ...

Each of particles in the standard model has an associated antiparticle. When a particle and antiparticle combine to ‘annihilate’ each other the only result is energy. In hospitals, radioactive ...

They arise from the exchange of bosons. Bosons are the 'force carrying' or 'force-mediating' particles. If a fermion, such as a quark or lepton produces a boson, which is then taken in by another ...

The LHCb experiment at CERN has revealed a fundamental asymmetry in the behavior of particles called baryons ... the complex predictions of the Standard Model of particle physics are not yet precise ...

"It took over 80,000 baryon decays for us to see matter–antimatter asymmetry with this class of particles for the first time.

In its analysis of large quantities of data produced by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the international team found overwhelming evidence that particles ... of the Standard Model of particle ...
