The largest particle accelerator in the US will undergo an upgrade and reopen after more than a decade of shutdown

  • No comments
The upgrade is expected to last several years and will include the construction of a new building to house the upgraded accelerator. Permilab is also planning to build a new particle detector, which will be used to study the particles produced by the Tevatron.

A first international experiment of its kind has confirmed the theory of particle physics that there is no evidence for the existence of a fourth neutrino

  • No comments
The experiment, with the participation of nearly 200 physicists from different countries, was conducted at the Fermilab National Laboratory in the United States. The team of experts from Israel included two research groups, Dr. Adi Ashkenazi and Prof. Eli Pisatsky from the School of Physics and Astronomy at Tel Aviv University

The moment of truth has arrived - will we hear about new physics this week?

After almost two decades accompanied by technical and financial challenges, on the XNUMXth of April we heard, perhaps, exciting news from Permilab Laboratories in the United States. The experiment run for the second time was set up to measure the muon's magnetic moment and if a deviation is detected, even the smallest, it may hint at a new elementary particle in nature

The end of the world - the science version: "If indeed the mass of the Higgs boson is as shown by the experiments at the axis, an empty bubble will swallow the universe"
