The UK is to invest £65 million (€74 million) in the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) and Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) in the US, announced UK science minister Jo Johnson on 2...
Read article 'Fastest spinning fluid clocked by RHIC'
Experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory have found that droplets of quark–gluon plasma (QGP) can spin faster than any other fluid. The immensely h...

The LHCb collaboration has released yet another result in its campaign to test lepton-flavour universality. Following anomalies already detected in the rate that B mesons decay into muons compared to ...
Read article 'CMS observes top quarks in proton–nucleus collisions'
The top quark, the heaviest elementary particle in the Standard Model, has been the subject of numerous detailed studies in proton–antiproton and proton–proton collisions at the Tevatron and LHC s...

The temporal distribution of solar flares is correlated with the positions of the Earth, Mercury and Venus.
Read article 'Miniature detector first to spot coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering'
The COHERENT collaboration at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in the US has detected coherent elastic scattering of neutrinos off nuclei for the first time. The ability to harness this process, p...
