In 1974, the independent discovery of the J/psi particle at SLAC and Brookhaven National Laboratory rocked the physics world, and entire textbooks had to be rewritten. Earlier this month, SLAC hosted ...
They maintained that the Standard Model of Particle Physics is used to make very accurate predictions about how subatomic particles interact and decay. “However, there are gaps in the Standard ...
Muons are tiny subatomic particles that are everywhere on earth, according to physicists. They are created when cosmic rays smash into the Earth’s atmosphere, showering the surface of the planet ...
Nevertheless, since many technologies depend on subatomic particles or photons showing wave-particle duality, we don’t need our cats, clothes, or colleagues to show wavelike behavior for the ...
