The Muonium-to-Antimuonium Conversion Experiment (MACE) aims to detect the rare conversion of muonium into antimuonium, a process that could reveal new physics. The experiment seeks to improve upon the last experimental limit by more than two orders of magnitude and target a conversion probability as low as 10^-13.
Shatashvili is being recognized for his contributions to mathematical physics, particularly in the study of symmetry in quantum field theory. His work has been instrumental in connecting mathematics and physics, with notable achievements including the co-discovery of Bethe/gauge correspondence.
A recent study suggests that the observation of antihelium nuclei in cosmic rays may be consistent with the existence of WIMP particles, which could make up dark matter. The detection of two distinct isotopes, antihelium-3 and -4, is particularly intriguing as heavier nuclei are unlikely to be produced through natural processes.
An international team of scientists, led by Professor Owen Long, explored supersymmetry as an extension of the Standard Model. They conducted experiments at the Large Hadron Collider and found no signs of supersymmetric particles, but their null result is still a significant scientific progress.
A team of researchers at UPV's Nanophotonics Technology Center has discovered a new fundamental symmetry that allows the conservation of linear moment between dramatically different physical systems. This enables the design of pioneering optical, acoustic and elastic devices, including invisible omnidirectional materials.
Kanazawa University researcher Hajime Moriya shows that the extended Nicolai supersymmetric fermion lattice model breaks supersymmetry and has a strictly positive energy density for any homogeneous ground state. This contradicts previous claims that supersymmetry may be restored in the infinite-volume limit.
Physicist Pierre Ramond has been awarded the 2015 Dannie Heineman Prize for his groundbreaking contributions to supersymmetry and superstring theory. His work provides a compelling picture of the universe, with tiny string-like objects vibrating to form particles.
UCSB physicist Tarun Grover has provided mathematical evidence for supersymmetry in a topological superconductor. The research, conducted with colleagues Donna Sheng and Ashvin Vishwanath, appears in the journal Science. Supersymmetry describes a unique relationship between particles, with fermions having boson superpartners.
Researchers have made significant advancements in sensitivity and believe a dark matter particle interacts with ordinary matter rarely, according to conference discussions. The hunt for dark matter continues, with the LHC yet to find evidence of supersymmetry, but potential discovery could reveal dominant form of universe-seeding matter.
A team of scientists at Yale and Harvard has set a new benchmark for the electron's roundness, contradicting some Supersymmetry theories. The research used a unique method to detect particles, showing that the electron is more spherical than predicted by these extensions.
The Large Hadron Collider is poised to generate a bonanza of experimental data, putting hotly debated theories to the test. Potential breakthroughs include an explanation of mass and identification of dark matter.
