ALICE Enters New Territory

A computer screen in the ALICE control room shows an event display on the night of the first heavy-ion collisions in the LHC in November 2010. A basic process in QCD is the energy loss of a fast parton in … Continue reading

Atlas Experiment :Tile Calorimeter Barrel

Atlas Photos The tile calorimeter will collect the energy released in the LHC’s proton-proton collisions. Special plastic manufacturing techniques have been adapted to mass produce the ATLAS elements. Dialogos of Eide

The Sound The Universe Makes

As most know who have come to visit here at this Blog site, my fascination with the ways in which “sensationally” and internally one might look at the universe. So of course as long as the science is there in … Continue reading

Are There Extra Dimensions of Space?

Are there Extra Dimensions of Space? A QGP is formed at the collision point of two relativistically accelerated gold ions in the center of the STAR detector at the relativistic heavy ion collider at the Brookhaven national laboratory. Some of … Continue reading

Keeping it Real

The first results on supersymmetry from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have been analysed by physicists and some are suggesting that the theory may be in trouble. Data from proton collisions in both the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) and ATLAS … Continue reading

2010 ion run: completed!

First direct observation of jet quenching. At the recent seminar, the LHC’s dedicated heavy-ion experiment, ALICE, confirmed that QGP behaves like an ideal liquid, a phenomenon earlier observed at the US Brookhaven Laboratory’s RHIC facility. This question was indeed one … Continue reading
