Very soon after the Big Bang, the universe enjoyed a brief phase where quarks and gluons roamed freely, not yet joined up ...

A group of scientists from Italy was able to accurately describe the behavior of quark-gluon plasma in the first moments ...

But the details of the quark and gluon contributions have remained elusive. Now, a new investigation from an international collaboration of physicists compiles evidence from observational results ...

A team of physicists has embarked on a journey where few others have gone: into the glue that binds atomic nuclei. The ...

Instead they became an ocean—a perfect liquid of particles flowing with almost no resistance, called a quark-gluon plasma. This stage of the universe's history ended quickly. Within 10-6 second ...

This is the story of quark-gluon plasma. Take an atom, any atom. Peel away its whirling electron clouds to reveal its core, the atomic nucleus. Then, finely dice the nucleus into its base ...

Force-carrying particles such as the gluon, as well as the photon for the electromagnetic force, and the W and Z bosons for the weak force, are all massless particles with a quantum spin of 1 and ...

"In this case, we did exclusive photo-production of the J/ from the proton, and we're getting the gluon distribution instead of the charge distribution." The collaborators were then able to insert ...

However, the team at Gluon proposes an alternative: preserving the three-dimensional image of the building for the public to explore freely. By combining laser scan data, which can accurately ...

Over the course of 2025, RHIC physicists will complete data collection on quark-gluon plasma, the soup of particles that existed in the earliest days of the universe. “The original idea behind ...

Japanese digital consultancy Gluon is combining data from laser scanning with 20,000 photographs to create an augmented reality model of the Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo, which is currently ...
