(PhysOrg.com) -- New high-energy particle research by a team working with data from Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory further heightens the uncertainty about the exact nature of a key theoretical component of modern physics -- the massive fundamental particle called the Higgs boson. http://www.physorg.com/news179421292.html Physics Mon, 07 Dec 2009 15:15:45 EST news179421292 (PhysOrg.com) -- Troubles at the Large Hadron Collider have led some physicists to suggest the Higgs boson is sabotaging its own discovery. Nahn explains why he disagrees. http://www.physorg.com/news175181725.html Physics Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:36:42 EST news175181725 A clock that is so precise that it loses only a second every 300 million years - this is the result of new research in ultra cold atoms. The international collaboration is comprised of researchers from the University of Colorado, USA and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen and the results have just been published in the prestigious scientific journal, Science. http://www.physorg.com/news159111429.html Physics Thu, 16 Apr 2009 14:37:36 EST news159111429 (PhysOrg.com) -- The territory where the Higgs boson may be found continues to shrink. The latest analysis of data from the CDF and DZero collider experiments at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermilab now excludes a significant fraction of the allowed Higgs mass range established by earlier measurements. Those experiments predict that the Higgs particle should have a mass between 114 and 185 GeV/c2. Now the CDF and DZero results carve out a section in the middle of this range and establish that it cannot have a mass in between 160 and 170 GeV/c2. http://www.physorg.com/news156160849.html Physics Fri, 13 Mar 2009 11:01:43 EST news156160849 (PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists of the DZero collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have achieved the world's most precise measurement of the mass of the W boson by a single experiment. Combined with other measurements, the reduced uncertainty of the W boson mass will lead to stricter bounds on the mass of the elusive Higgs boson. http://www.physorg.com/news156002472.html Physics Wed, 11 Mar 2009 15:02:14 EST news156002472 (PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists of the CDF and DZero collaborations at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have observed particle collisions that produce single top quarks. The discovery of the single top confirms important parameters of particle physics, including the total number of quarks, and has significance for the ongoing search for the Higgs particle at Fermilab's Tevatron, currently the world's most powerful operating particle accelerator. http://www.physorg.com/news155816209.html Physics Mon, 09 Mar 2009 11:17:28 EST news155816209 Several years after Duke University researchers announced spectacular behavior of a low density ultracold gas cloud, researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have observed strikingly similar properties in a very hot and dense plasma "fluid" created to simulate conditions when the universe was about one millionths of a second old. http://www.physorg.com/news153928950.html Physics Sun, 15 Feb 2009 14:03:22 EST news153928950 (PhysOrg.com) -- `It's pretty clear that the standard model of physics is not enough to explain all the phenomena in nature,` Tomasz Skwarnicki tells PhysOrg.com. `Through looking at a variety of phenomena - one of them being dark matter - we know that there is a whole set of interactions beyond our standard model.` Skwarnicki`s work doesn`t deal with dark matter, but the Syracuse University physicist has been working on models of physics that go beyond the standard. http://www.physorg.com/news143714451.html Physics Mon, 20 Oct 2008 09:40:51 EST news143714451 The hunt for the Higgs boson, the most highly sought-after particle in physics, received a boost this month with the release of two new results from the Tevatron particle collider at the US Department of Energy's Fermilab in Illinois. http://www.physorg.com/news139155299.html Physics Thu, 28 Aug 2008 15:14:59 EST news139155299
