Experiments revisit the quark-gluon soup
The main goal of this research is to explore the transition from ordinary hadronic matter to quark-gluon plasma - matter as it is thought to have existed at the birth of the universe.

Mapping quark confinement by exotic particles
According to our increasing understanding of quark physics, more kinds of particle should exist than are currently known. New experiments at the Jefferson Laboratory are setting out to search for th...
