  • New Physics at LHC? An Anomaly in CP Violation | Cosmic Variance

    Updated: 2011-11-14 23:12:09
    Here in the Era of 3-Sigma Results, we tend to get excited about hints of new physics that eventually end up going away. That’s okay — excitement is cheap, and eventually one of these results is going to stick and end up changing physics in a dramatic way. Remember that “3 sigma” is the minimum [...]

  • LHCb uses charm to find asymmetry

    Updated: 2011-11-14 19:25:42
    Scientists from the LHCb collaboration at CERN recently saw curious possible evidence of this asymmetry: The difference between the decay rates of certain particles in their detector, D and anti-D charm mesons, was higher than expected.

    The latest underground dweller in the MINOS tunnel is SciBath, a neutron and neutrino detector designed and built by an Indiana University team. Scientists are using the detector cube, which is about the size of a mini fridge, to track neutrons and neutrinos more effectively and economically.

  • Physicists discover 'magnetotoroidic effect'

    Updated: 2011-09-26 14:10:01
    (PhysOrg.com) -- For many years, scientists have known about the magnetoelectric effect, in which an electric field can induce and control a magnetic field, and vice versa. In this effect, the electric field has always been homogeneous. Now, scientists have found that a curled electric field can also be used to control magnetic fields, constituting a novel phenomenon that they call the "magnetotoroidic effect."

  • Could primordial black holes be dark matter?

    Updated: 2011-09-21 13:50:01
    (PhysOrg.com) -- “We know that about 25% of the matter in the universe is dark matter, but we don’t know what it is,” Michael Kesden tells PhysOrg.com. “There are a number of different theories about what dark matter could be, but we think one alternative might be very small primordial black holes.”
