At ultracold temperatures, interatomic collisions are relatively simple, and their outcome can be controlled using a magnetic field. However, research by scientists led by Prof. Michal Tomza from the ...

The LHC facility at CERN is famous for the discovery of the Higgs boson, dubbed the ‘God particle’.

Collisional resistivity saturation has a hard quantum ceiling, a University of Toronto experiment shows: ultracold ...

When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of electrons they have or even the quantum spin of their nuclei—has a lot to say about how they bounce off each other. This is ...

Probing the evolution of magnetic fields generated in heavy-ion collisions can offer key insights into fundamental physical phenomena, including the nature of the early universe. In heavy-ion ...

The world's most powerful particle accelerator will Monday shutter operations for four years of renovations to dramatically ...

An international team of physicists has studied how particles are produced in high-energy electron–proton collisions through the lens of entanglement entropy Entanglement entropy has emerged as a new ...

Electrical resistance is easy to notice and hard to pin down. Power lines shed energy as heat, and metals warm up when ...

Ion-atom collision dynamics explores the fundamental interactions that occur when charged particles impact neutral atoms, leading to processes such as elastic scattering, excitation, ionisation and ...

In the recent decade, progress in black hole (BH) physics has been driven by landmark experimental achievements — from the first observation of ...
