Nucleons, which include protons and neutrons, are the composite particles that make up atomic nuclei. While these particles have been widely studied in the past, their internal structure has not yet ...

What is the purpose of prescribed practical P4? To investigate experimentally the relationship between the mass and volume of liquids and regular solids, and analyse and interpret the data gathered.

The W boson particle was discovered in 1983. It is not just a fundamental particle in physics, but together with the Z boson, W boson is responsible for what is known as the weak force, which is one ...

The Compact Muon Solenoid detector is located 100 meters underground on the Franco-Swiss borderer at CERN and collects data from the Large Hadron Collider. The detector has been operational since 2010 ...

In a dual set of papers published in Science last week, an international group of researchers presented an experiment which used relativistic time dilation to measure the curvature of spacetime. The ...

Of all the elementary particles in the universe, neutrinos may be the strangest. Sometimes known as “ghost particles,” these mysterious little packets of energy have no electrical charge, have almost ...

In 1915 Einstein came up with his theory of relativity which tells us that massive objects warp space. Four years later British astronomer Sir Arthur Eddington was able to prove this theory true by ...

Copper atoms are larger than aluminum atoms. There are fewer copper atoms than aluminum atoms in the cubes. Copper atoms are much more massive than aluminum atoms. The extra mass makes copper more ...
