Physicists: After 30 years of study, rare particle confirms prediction
High-energy physicists devoted to recreating the conditions at the beginning of the universe have for the first time observed a new way to produce those basic particles of atoms, protons and neutrons.   view more (2008-03-11)

Exploring the standard model of physics without the high-energy collider
Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the US, have performed sophisticated laser measurements to detect the subtle effects of one of nature's most elusive forces - the "weak interaction".   view more (2009-08-11)

Professor Dr. Rolf-Dieter Heuer Appointed as New Research Director
On its meeting on October 1, 2004, the Administrative Council of the Helmholtz center DESY appointed Professor Dr Rolf-Dieter Heuer as the new research director for high-energy physics. He takes over from Professor Dr Robert Klanner, who decided after his five-year term of office to dedicate himself to teaching and research again.   view more (2004-10-04)

The Innovation Review: response from Research Councils UK
A government report examining the contribution that innovation makes to closing the nation's productivity gap has been welcomed by the UK's Research Councils. The DTI's Innovation Review, published today, recognises that the UK's Research Councils have significantly increased the rate of knowledge transfer from their research activities in recent... view more...

Growing geodesic carbon nanodomes
Researchers analyzing the assembly of graphene (sheets of carbon only one atom thick) on a surface of iridium have found that the sheets grow by first forming tiny carbon domes.   view more (2009-10-12)

A microscope for Higgs bosons and squarks - The Physics Congress 2002
There is now agreement in Europe, Asia and the United States of America that the next major project in particle physics should be a world-wide linear electron-positron collider. Dr Phil Burrows of the University of Oxford will explain to the Institute of Physics Congress on Tuesday 9 April how this huge particle accelerator, 20-30 km long, will... view more... (2002-04-02)

Optical fibers monitor particle accelerator
The DESY laboratory in Hamburg is planning to build a 33-km linear collider. In order to fine-tune the beam to the equipment, scientists must determine the size and location of any radiation leaks. A newly developed fiber-optic measuring technique provides the answer. Living cells are small and the processes taking place inside them fast.... view more... (2002-02-01)

UCSB professor's paper on safety of large hadron collider to be published in Physical Review D
Particle colliders creating black holes that could devour the Earth. Sounds like a great Hollywood script.   view more (2008-06-30)

Physicists seek to keep next-gen colliders in 1 piece
Controlling huge electromagnetic forces that have the potential to destroy the next generation of particle accelerators is the subject of a new paper by a University of Manchester physicist.   view more (2009-10-06)

Theorists Reveal Path to True Muonium
True muonium, a long-theorized but never-seen atom, might be observed in future experiments, thanks to recent theoretical work by researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Arizona State University.   view more (2009-06-01)

NIST super-sensors to measure 'signature' of inflationary universe
What happened in the first trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang?   view more (2009-05-04)

Nobel laureate Burton Richter to speak about future of particle physics
Particle physics is about to transform our thinking once again. Experiments of the last 15 years suggest new forms of matter, new forces of nature and perhaps even new dimensions of space and time. Pinning down the new ideas will require more data from larger and more expensive machines-at a time when funding is more difficult than ever to secure.   view more (2007-02-16)

American-Made SRF Cavity Makes the Grade
The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility marked a step forward in the field of advanced particle accelerator technology with the successful test of the first U.S.-built superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) niobium cavity to meet the exacting specifications of the proposed International Linear Collider... view more...
