Tevatron Experiments Double-Team Higgs Boson
Scientists from the CDF and DZero collaborations at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermilab have combined Tevatron data from the two experiments to advance the quest for the long-sought Higgs boson. view more (2008-08-05)
Precision measurement of W boson mass portends stricter limits for Higgs particle
Scientists of the DZero collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have achieved the world's most precise measurement of the mass of the W boson by a single experiment. Combined with other measurements, the reduced uncertainty of the W boson mass will lead to stricter bounds on the mass of the elusive Higgs... view more... (2009-03-12)
CDF precision measurement of W-boson mass suggests a lighter Higgs particle
Scientists of the CDF collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced today (January 8, 2007) the world's most precise measurement by a single experiment of the mass of the W boson, the carrier of the weak nuclear force and a key parameter of the Standard Model of particles and forces. The new W-mass... view more... (2007-01-09)

DZero finds evidence of rare single top quark; Observation marks a step closer to finding Higgs boson
Scientists of the DZero collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced in a seminar at Fermilab on December 8, 2006 the first evidence of single top quarks produced in a rare subatomic process involving the weak nuclear force. view more (2006-12-18)
Michigan integral to world's largest physics experiment
After 20 years of construction, a machine that could either verify or nullify the prevailing theory of particle physics is about to begin its mission. view more (2008-09-08)
No sign of the Higgs
Are physicists spending billions on a wild goose chase? THE legendary particle that physicists thought explained why matter has mass, probably doesn`t exist. So say researchers who have spent a year analysing data from the LEP accelerator at the CERN nuclear physics lab near Geneva. The elusive... view more... (2001-12-05)
Brown physicists play key role in single top quark discovery
Brown University physicists have played a key role in observing particle collisions that produce a single top quark, one of the fundamental constituents of matter. The discovery was announced Monday by scientists of the CDF and DZero collaborations at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. view more (2009-03-10)

New particle explains odd behavior in cuprate superconductors
New fundamental particles aren't found only at Fermilab and at other particle accelerators. They also can be found hiding in plain pieces of ceramic, scientists at the University of Illinois report. view more (2007-07-18)
Researchers examine role of climate change in disease spread
Ever since scientists first proposed that our planet might be experiencing widespread climate change, concerns have been raised about its implications for the spread of arboviruses - viruses carried by arthropods such as mosquitoes, midges and ticks. view more (2009-02-06)
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)
Iowa State scientists, students contribute to world's biggest science experiment
The first beam of protons will begin racing around the world's biggest science experiment on Wednesday, Sept. 10, and Iowa State University physicists will be part of the research team taking notes. view more (2008-09-09)
Discovery Prospects at the Large Hadron Collider
Will scientists ever find the elusive Higgs particle, the last of the fundamental particles predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics and postulated to play a major role in how fundamental particles get their masses? view more (2006-04-25)
Research team co-led by UC Riverside physicist observes production of single-top-quarks
A group of 28 scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, co-led by UC Riverside's Ann Heinson, has made the first observation of the production of single top quarks - an observation that resulted from proton-antiproton collisions measured by the DZero detector in Fermilab's Tevatron, the world's... view more...

Taking Their Science into Parliament
Searching for elusive sub atomic particles, unravelling the mysteries of the Moon, visualising the results of atom smashing experiments and researching the next generation of particle physics experiments - what do all of these have in common? The answer is that all of these cutting edge science projects, funded by the Particle Physics and... view more... (2003-03-14)
Earlier bites by uninfected mosquitoes boost West Nile deaths in lab mice
There's one more reason to try to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes, scientists have discovered: bites from mosquitoes that aren't infected by the West Nile virus may make the disease worse in people who acquire it later from West Nile-infected mosquitoes. view more (2007-11-16)
