Red lines show the disintegration of a B-sub-s into two muons in the CMS camera at the Large Hadron Collider. Yello, green and blue are used to denote particles other than muons. Purdue University ...

On Monday, the Society of Physics Students, or SPS, welcomed Helen Quinn — a renowned particle physicist — to deliver the Howard L. Schultz Sr. Price Lecture. During the talk, Quinn spoke on her ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...

The molecular hydrogen ion H₂⁺ is the simplest molecule. This simplicity makes it a perfect study object for physicists, as ...
