Read article 'New precision result on CP violation'
The latest precision measurement of CP violation, matter-antimatter asymmetry, by the big NA48 experiment at CERN are explored in this article from 2000.
Read article 'CP Violation'
This carefully written book would make a useful introduction and guide to the difficult theory of this phenomenon.
Read article 'Lessons learnt from the heavy tau lepton'
A quarter of a century ago, Martin Perl discovered a new particle: the tau lepton. This weakly interacting particle is so heavy that it can decay into strongly interacting particles and provide very ...
Read article 'HAPPEX probes ‘sea’ of nucleon strangeness'
The proton is not strange. This is the conclusion drawn from the initial results of an experiment at the Jefferson Laboratory, Newport News, Virginia, which cast new light on the deep interior of nucl...
Read article 'New meson physics pushes on in 2000'
On 9-10 December a symposium at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, will mark the 20th anniversary of the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, the CLEO particle detector and the Cornell High-Energy Synchr...
Read article 'CPT and Lorentz Symmetry'
These are the proceedings of a meeting held at Bloomington, Indiana, November 1998, which look at the underlying spacetime symmetries of particle physics.
Read article 'Heavy physics implications'
This year's major particle physics meeting showed that heavy "flavours", whether they are strongly interacting quarks or weakly interacting leptons, are still very much at the cutting edge of today's ...
Read article 'Neutrino physics gains weight'
Neutrinos are always compelling physics. The neutrino sessions at this year's International Lepton-Photon Symposium at Stanford gave an up-to-date snapshot.
Read article 'Physicists focus on quest for Bs'
The physics of B particles is a major new focus of world particle physics research. A session at the recent lepton-photon symposium provided a useful overview.
Read article 'CP Violation'
A complete theoretical and phenomenological study of CP violation and the CKM matrix, including the implications for heavy quarks.
