A boiling sea of quarks and gluons, including virtual ones—this is how we can imagine the main phase of high-energy proton ...
We built the world’s bounciest trampoline and dropped a bowling ball onto it from 150 feet to see if it could bounce all the way back up. The first attempts tore the rubber, collapsed the frame, and ...
We hauled a bowling ball 150 feet up a tower and dropped it straight onto a thick slab of bulletproof glass. The impact left the entire panel looking destroyed from the inside while the top layer ...
Theoretical physics is the development of mathematical formalisms and computational protocols for describing all aspects of objects found in the world around us and their interaction. This can involve ...
