Quark Matter 2005, the 18th International Conference on Ultra-Relativistic Nucleus- Nucleus Collisions, provided a lively forum for new results in heavy-ion physics.
Europe's premier particle-physics conference took place in 2005 on the banks of the River Tagus, near Lisbon. Per Osland and Jorma Tuominiemi report.
Quark spin, gluon spin and the orbital angular momenta of quarks and gluons can all contribute to nucleon spin, but which has the main role? Physicists met in Tokyo to discuss.
The biennial Lepton-Photon conference was held in Uppsala on 30 June - 5 July. The talks erected the impressive edifice known as the Standard Model and showed that experimental ingenuity has not yet s...
Jefferson Lab may have directly observed short-range nucleon correlations, with densities similar to those at the heart of a neutron star.
In October 2005 the VEPP-4M collider at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics started its latest run with the KEDR detector.
In a sample of 58 million J/ψ events, the BES collaboration at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) has found a clear signal (7.7σ statistical significance) for a new resonance, the X(1835)...
The RHIC accelerator collides 100 GeV polarized protons head-on to study the contribution of gluons to the proton spin. But how is the degree of polarization of the beam known? Willy Haeberli explain...
The DIS 2005 workshop reviewed progress in deep inelastic scattering and quantum chromodynamics, and provided the chance to plan for the future, reports Wesley Smith.
The HCP2005 Symposium, held in the Swiss Alps, discussed the latest results from the Tevatron and the prospect that the LHC will open new scientific frontiers.
