What Happened to the Antimatter? Fermilab's DZero Experiment Finds Clues in Quick-Change Meson
Scientists of the DZero collider detector collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have announced that their data on the properties of a subatomic particle, the B_s meson ("B sub s"), suggest that the particle oscillates between matter and antimatter in one of nature's fastest rapid-fire... view more...

Astronomers find first ever gamma ray clock
Astronomers using the H.E.S.S. telescopes have discovered the first ever modulated signal from space in Very High Energy Gamma Rays - the most energetic such signal ever observed. view more (2006-11-28)
Physicists size up the 'unitarity triangle'
B factory experiments at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in the USA and at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) in Japan have reached a new milestone in the quest to understand the matter-antimatter imbalance in our universe. view more (2006-06-26)
UCR-led research team detects 'top quark,' a basic constituent of matter
A group of 50 international physicists, led by UC Riverside's Ann Heinson, has detected for the first time a subatomic particle, the top quark, produced without the simultaneous production of its antimatter partner - an extremely rare event. view more (2006-12-14)
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)
It Might Be... It Could Be... It Is !
Scientists of the CDF collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced today (September 25, 2006) that they have met the exacting standard to claim discovery of astonishingly rapid transitions between matter and antimatter: 3 trillion oscillations per second. view more (2006-09-26)
Big magnet ready to face the big questions of the universe
The largest superconducting magnet ever built has successfully been powered up to its operating conditions at the first attempt. Called the Barrel Toroid because of its shape, this magnet is a vital part of ATLAS, one of the major particle detectors being prepared to take data at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the new particle accelerator... view more...

Were the first stars dark?
Perhaps the first stars in the newborn universe did not shine, but instead were invisible "dark stars" 400 to 200,000 times wider than the sun and powered by the annihilation of mysterious dark matter, a University of Utah study concludes view more (2007-12-03)
Where has all the antimatter gone?
Scientists from the Universities of Liverpool and Glasgow have completed work on the inner heart of an experiment which seeks to find out what has happened to all the antimatter created at the start of the Universe. view more (2007-04-12)
Time reversal in the real world
If time went backwards life would look like a video recording played in reverse - or would it? New findings demonstrate that this common assumption may not hold true. Experiments showing for the first time that time is not symmetrical are explained today by Dr John Fry from the University of Liverpool at the British Association Festival of... view more...

Why matter matters in the universe
A new physics discovery explores why there is more matter than antimatter in the universe. view more (2008-03-31)
Physicists offer new approach to studying antimatter
What happens when two atoms, each made up of an electron and its antimatter counterpart, called the positron, collide with each other? view more (2005-11-01)
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)
Lining up for a new atom smasher
The physicists are coming to Oxford for the ECFA/DESY Linear Collider Workshop, from 20-23 March. Here they will develop plans for two 10-km long particle accelerators which will be accurately aligned to fire beams of electrons and positrons (anti-electrons) at each other. When matter and antimatter collide, they disappear - annihilate - in a... view more... (1999-03-16)
2,500 researchers, 1 supermachine, 1 new snapshot of the universe
Deep in the bowels of the earth -100 metres below ground in Geneva, Switzerland - lies a supermachine of 27 km circumference called the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) that has been built to unlock the mysteries of the universe. view more (2008-04-01)
In the first second of Creation
At the very beginning of the Universe both forms of matter existed in equal amounts. They should have cancelled themselves out leaving just energy. But, within a second, something happened to ensure that matter prevailed - and that the Universe could develop in the way that it did. BaBar should shed light on that critical event 15 billion years... view more... (1999-06-11)
Antiprotons 4 times more effective than protons for cell irradiation
A pioneering experiment at CERN with potential future application in cancer therapy has produced its first results. Started in 2003, ACE (Antiproton Cell Experiment) is the first investigation of the biological effects of antiprotons. view more (2006-11-01)
Scientist of the University of Ghent discovers natural atom antihydrogen
On February 15, 2005 of the Physics/Einstein Year, the complete story of the discovery of natural atom antihydrogen, started in 1985, was published on-line. view more (2005-03-02)
Neutrinos galore - an old problem, a new challenge - The Physics Congress 2002
Neutrinos - probably the most baffling forms of known matter in the Universe - are setting new challenges for physicists, just as one long-running mystery seems close to being resolved. On Wednesday 10 April, John Bahcall from the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA, will tell the Institute of Physics Congress in Brighton how we are at... view more... (2002-04-02)
Linking With The Future
Exploring and using space is the biggest adventure facing mankind. Finding innovative ways for ESA to continue doing this is the role of the Advanced Concepts Team (ACT) at ESA's European Space Technology Research Centre (ESTEC). It is their job to look into the future and identify ideas which could enable missions that currently sound like... view more... (2004-07-08)
