On simulation of status of a star In order to build an expensive detector for experiments at accelerators or in space, one should carefully calculate the response it gives to elementary particles trapped in it. Here, the nature has prepared … Continue reading
On sharp pricks When using simple measuring instruments such as a micrometer or ammeter, they hope for the accuracy of measurement, indicated on the tool, obtained as a result of its calibration. Detectors, used at the Large Hadron Collider, are … Continue reading
Passage of dark matter particles through substances without interacting… The dark matter makes up more than 80% of the matter of the universe. This does not almost radiate electromagnetic waves and manifests itself basically by its gravitational interaction. It may … Continue reading
Slowly but surely revealing the theoretically predicted particles… With their own hands physicists allow new species of particles that do not exist in substances to be born. The birth occurs when particle beams collide with either a target or each … Continue reading
Expecting antineutrinos from the sun, but getting them from a supernova After a huge amount of work carried out by scientists to find a coherent theoretical scheme or to create experimental unit, new knowledge comes as it were perfectly normal. … Continue reading
