Positron physics examines the behaviour of the positron, the electron’s antiparticle, and its interactions with matter. Central to this field is the study of annihilation processes, whereby positrons ...

The interaction between solid matter and positron (the antiparticle of electron) has provided important insights across a variety of disciplines, including atomic physics, materials science, ...

Cost measures CERN is proposing the Future Circular Collider to study the Higgs boson in great detail, but can it afford the $18bn price tag? (Courtesy: CERN/Polar Media) Last November I visited the ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...

Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...

Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

The European Strategy Group tasked a working group to compare seven proposals for CERN’s next large-scale collider.

The European Strategy Group has recommended FCC-ee as the preferred option for the next flagship collider at CERN.

Positron, the antiparticle of electron, has the same mass and charge as that of an electron but with the sign flipped for the charge. It is an attractive particle for scientists because the use of ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...
