Whether as the protons and neutrons that help form chemical elements, the photons that we perceive as light or even the flows ...

Most exotic hadrons, which are subatomic particles, are made up of two or three elemental particles called quarks. The strong force is one of four forces known in the universe, along with the ...

Researchers are trying to explain their anomalous findings. Their larger experiment is an ongoing investigation of CP ...

Complex hadrons — The LHC has been a treasure trove for new types of particles called hadrons. These are subatomic particles made from two or more quarks. Conventionally, these come in two types.

The new findings will help theorists to better understand the formation of hadrons, or subatomic particles, and to develop a unified model for exotic hadrons.

Most exotic hadrons, which are subatomic particles, are made up of two or three elemental particles known as quarks.

The subatomic particles that we’re familiar with—the typical protons and neutrons—are made up of three quarks; tetraquark particles are weird, and usually need high energies to stay together.

Scientists suspect that X (3872) is either a compact tetraquark or an entirely new kind of molecule made from not atoms but two loosely bound mesons -- subatomic particles that themselves are made ...

String theory is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for what physicists call a theory of everything – a single ...

Obituaries Peter Higgs, Nobel-winning physicist on a subatomic hunt, dies at 94 His theory, contingent on what became known as the Higgs boson, made the Standard Model of Particle Physics possible ...
