I had some lovely news waiting for me when we landed at Heathrow last night: I won the Light Reading flash fiction competition run by Diamond Light Source, the UK's national synchrotron. Don't know what a synchrotron is? Neither did I! It's a kind of particle accelerator, it whizzes subatomic partic ...

!!!! All my life I have been confronted by gravity. I do not just mean my tendency to fall to the ground if I lose my balance or to have to sweep up the fragments of a glass or a dish that I accidentally drop on the floor. I mean, the question “What is gravity?” has bothered me all my adult life. Sc ...

分类: 科技新闻 大型强子碰撞器自从 重新上线运转以来，已经过了将近两年的时间。虽然我们一边在庆幸到现在都还没有撞出什么黑洞或外星生物来，但一样糟糕的是，到目前为止什么结果也没撞出来。本来原定今天举办的 CERN 研讨会上，一度有传闻说会宣布「神之粒子」 希格斯玻色子被找到了的消息，从而一举解释质量的来源，但最终仍然只是将希格斯玻色子的可能质量进一步地限缩到了 115.5 GeV 到 131 GeV 的范围内，而无法肯定的说「找到了！」。主要的困难在于，我们最先进的仪器仍然不足以直接「看」到希格斯玻色子，只能侦测它衰变后的产物（两个光子），但问题是还有很多其他种的粒子，会经由各种管道衰变成两颗 ...

Long-sought particle not conclusively detected yet, but researchers may have found its hiding place. CMS proton-proton collision events in which 4 high energy muons (red lines) are observed. The event shows characteristics expected from the decay of a Higgs boson but is also consistent with backgrou ...

CERN is pouring cold water on the rumor it’s gonna announce the discovery of the Higgs at today’s seminar in Zurich. For the uninitiated: the Higgs-Boson is the particle that is believed to give all things mass: it surrounds us, penetrates us and binds the galaxy together. The scuttlebutt is that th ...
