Physicists Discover New Particle: the Bottom-most 'Bottomonium'(PhysOrg.com) -- Thirty years ago, particle physics delighted in discovering the "bottomonium" family—the set of particles that contain both a bottom quark and an anti-bottom quark but are bound together with different energies. ... |
 Not a Quirk But a Quark ... a Quark Star!Astronomers recently announced that they have found a novel explanation for a rare type of super-luminous stellar explosion that may have produced a new type of object known as a quark star. |
 IU Physicists to get their 'glue-on'Indiana University physicists, with the backing of a National Science Foundation grant of $750,000, are preparing to study the strongest glue in the universe -- a glue so strong that it has held together the ... |
Physicist confines plasma components in a trap within a trapA University of Michigan professor has taken a step toward simulating a type of matter found in the crusts of neutron stars, in the cores of gas giant planets, and in exotic plasmas thought to be present in the earliest universe. |
A 'Golden Channel' for New PhysicsA group of physicists has dubbed a particular particle decay, the decay of the Bs meson into a neutral kaon and neutral antikaon, as a “golden channel” for new physics, suggesting that probing and studying the decay could ... |
Latest Supercomputer Calculations Support the Six-Quark TheoryA new calculation, reported in the January 25, 2008 issue of Physical Review Letters, confirms the six-quark theory of particle-anti-particle asymmetry. This is the first complete calculation of this phenomenon to ... |
 Protons - Everything Revolves Around SpinCurrent understanding of the spin structure of protons has been summarised in a single book for the first time. The book examines attempts to solve one of the greatest puzzles of physics. Models and experiments ... |
 Physicists see similarities in stream of sand grains, exotic plasma at birth of universeStreams of granular particles bouncing off a target in a simple tabletop experiment produce liquid-like behavior also witnessed in a massive research apparatus that simulates the birth of the universe. A team ... |
 New Type of Retinol Cell Discovered in PrimatesScientists are one step closer to understanding how the retinas of humans and primates turn incoming light into coded messages communicated to the brain. |
Scientists discover possible cosmic defect, remnant from Big BangScientists from the Institute of Physics of Cantabria (IFCA) and the University of Cambridge may have discovered an example of a cosmic defect, a remnant from the Big Bang called a texture. If confirmed, their discovery, ... |
Discovery of retinal cell type ends 4-decade searchA research team combining high-energy physicists from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and neuroscientists from the Salk Institute in La Jolla, Calif., has discovered a type of retinal cell that may help monkeys, ... |
A new look at the protonDutch researcher Paul van der Nat investigated more than three million collisions between electrons and protons. In his PhD thesis he demonstrates -- for the first time -- that the spin contribution of quarks to the proton ... |

 Astronomers pioneer new method for probing exotic matterUsing European and Japanese/NASA X-ray satellites, astronomers have seen Einstein’s predicted distortion of space-time around three neutron stars, and in doing so they have pioneered a groundbreaking technique ... |
Back-to-Back b Baryons in BataviaScientists at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have announced the observation of the cascade b baryon-again. |
