Earlier this year, however, the UK government announced that it will no longer fund the upgrade of the LHCb experiment on the ...
A new pentaquark – an exotic hadron comprising five quarks – has been discovered by physicists working on the LHCb experiment at CERN. LHCb scientists have also found that a feature in their data that ...
The LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is adding a new particle to its family of exotic matter. In the last seven years, the LHCb experiment at CERN has detected about a dozen types of ...
For the first time, the LHCb collaboration at CERN has observed an exotic particle made up of four charm quarks. The LHCb collaboration has observed a type of four-quark particle that has never been ...
Two of the general purpose detectors at the LHC, ATLAS and CMS, tend to keep a high profile, as they’re designed to be able to spot anything that comes out of the collisions—the Higgs, dark matter, or ...
Event display of a typical Bs0 decay into two muons. The two muon tracks from the Bs0 decay are seen as a pair of green tracks traversing the whole detector. Image: LHCb collaboration The Standard ...
At the end of December 2023, the LHCb experiment released all its data from Run 1 of the Large Hadron Collider. This data, collected by the experiment in 2011 and 2012, contains approximately 800 ...
Over at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, particles are accelerated to the greatest energies they've ever reached in history. In the CMS and ATLAS detectors, new fundamental particles are ...
“The pentaquark is not just any new particle,” said LHCb spokesperson Guy Wilkinson. “It represents a way to aggregate quarks, namely the fundamental constituents of ordinary protons and neutrons, in ...
The LHCb experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider has reported the observation of Xicc++ -- a new particle containing two charm quarks and one up quark. The existence of this particle from the ...
A new review examines the three decades of the LHCb experiment, its achievements and future potential. A new review published in EPJ H by Clara Matteuzzi, Research Director at the National Institute ...
