Read article 'Top-quark production gets a boost'
With the expected energy upgrade of the LHC the frequency of boosted final states will increase and even more sophisticated methods will be needed to search for physics beyond the Standard Model
Read article 'Can heavy-ion collisions cast light on strong CP?'
The symmetries of parity (P) and its combination with charge conjugation (C) are known to be broken in the weak interaction.
Read article 'Boosting sensitivity to new physics'
The LHC is a tremendously powerful tool built to explore physics at the tera-electron-volt scale. This year it is being operated with a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, which is a little over half of ...
Read article 'New results cast light on semileptonic Bs asymmetry'
LHCb reported the most precise measurement to date of an asymmetry in B-mesons.
Read article 'A surprising asymmetry and more excited states'
The predictions in these channels suffer from relatively large theoretical uncertainties but these can be overcome by measuring asymmetries in which the uncertainties cancel.
Read article 'Daya Bay collaboration observes a new kind of neutrino oscillation'
The Daya Bay reactor antineutrino experiment has observed the disappearance of electron-antineutrinos at a distance of about 2 km from the reactors.
Read article 'The rarest B decay ever observed'
With a branching ratio of about 2 per 100 million decays, this is the rarest decay of a B hadron ever observed.
Read article 'The heavier Bs meson state lives longer'
The LHCb collaboration has determined the sign of the width difference in the Bs system, ΔΓs, through the influence of quantum-mechanical interference.
Read article 'LHCb sees first evidence for CP violation in charm decays'
The LHCb collaboration has announced of the most interesting (and unexpected) results to come from the LHC so far: evidence of CP violation in charm decays.
Read article 'First results from Double Chooz'
Physicists at the Double Chooz experiment have found an indication of a disappearance of electron-antineutrinos that is consistent with neutrino oscillations.
