Polarized colliders may prove to be the key in mapping out proton spin structure
Arcane complication or vital property? Opinions about particle spin differ, but those who feel strongly about it say that more spin has to come into collision.

CERN's new nuclear physics facility, REX-ISOLDE, was commissioned at the end of October, opening up new horizons for the laboratory's nuclear physics community.
While plans to update the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider (BEPC) and the Beijing Spectro-meter (BESII) experiment go ahead, the BES experiment has completed its second highly successful run at t...
The collisions produced by the new generation of high-energy hadron machines - Fermilab's revamped Tevatron for protons on antiprotons, Brookhaven's RHIC for heavy ions and CERN's LHC for protons and...
The availability of relatively copious sources of antiprotons has stimulated the study of "exotic" atoms, in which a negatively charged antiproton replaces an orbital atomic electron. When they app...
While the proton and the neutron are made up of quarks and gluons, the spin of the proton or the neutron is difficult to reconcile with the spins of quark and gluon components. For more than a deca...

An experiment at Brookhaven's Alternating Gradient Synchrotron has "mass-produced" doubly strange hypernuclei - exotic nuclei in which two neutrons have been replaced by L hyperons.
Experiments on synthetic nuclei continue to explore a world that is very remote from our own experience. Recent studies at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, near Moscow, report anot...
