TIL protons have mass. I didn’t even know they were catholic.

⚛️ How does the biggest #particleaccelerator help to understand the smallest building blocks of #matter?

Ass. Profs. Kristof De Bruyn & Ann-Kathrin Perrevoort use the #LargeHadronCollider @CERN to collide #protons with the aim to discover unexplained phenomena. 💥

Sour Taste Is the Flavor of Protons

https://tube.blueben.net/w/p3rc5siiqqYRXW4nwKf7sS

Students at #SNOLAB are starting to engage in our common orientation for research experiences. One particle that comes up really early is the #muon. Students often don't learn about subatomic particle properties other than #electrons, #protons, and #neutrons until late in university. I made this video explicitly to help early-career students get familiar with the muon and see how it was the first direct test of the #relativity of time:

Taiyoken

Para criar explosões de luz no espaço, utilizando um acelerador de partículas e o fenômeno de captura eletrônica para gerar neutrinos. Esses neutrinos, ao interagirem com xenônio líquido, produziriam luz intensa para comunicação, navegação, defesa planetária e iluminação. O autor também faz uma analogia entre os ciclos de extinção na Terra e eventos cósmicos como o Big Bang, Big Crunch e Big Bounce, sugerindo que a...

Lightning-Fast Alchemy: CERN Just Turned Lead Into Gold – Then Watched It Vanish

An experiment has measured gold formation from lead nuclei during near-miss collisions in the Large Hadron Collider.

These high-speed interactions trigger electromagnetic processes that occasionally eject three protons, yielding gold atoms. Billions are made, but only for a split second.

The smallest-ever force field map of nature.

Physicists have mapped the forces acting inside a #proton, showing in unprecedented detail how #quarks—the tiny #particles within—respond when hit by high-energy #photons.

The new result breaks down #space and #time into a fine grid, allowing simulating how the strong force—the fundamental interaction that binds quarks into #protons and #neutrons—varies across different regions inside the proton.
