Pixel detectors have their roots in photography. Up until 50 years ago, every camera contained a roll of film on which images were photochemically recorded with each exposure, after which the ...

In the summer of 1968, while a visitor in CERN’s theory division, Gabriele Veneziano wrote a paper titled “Construction of a crossing-symmetric, Regge behaved amplitude for linearly-rising ...

What’s in a name? Reflecting their mystery, the first exotic states were named X, Y and Z. Later on, the proliferation of exotic states required an extension of the particle naming scheme. Manifestly ...
