Blasting Neutrinos Under Wisconsin May Yield Big Payoff - washingtonpost.comScientists are playing an exotic game of pitch and catch between Illinois and Minnesota. Their catcher's mitt is solid iron, weighs 5,500 tons, and is parked in northern Minnesota in an abandoned iron mine. With millions of dollars from the federal stimulus package, construction crews are now ...

Fermilab 'closing in' on the God particle - physics-math - 17 February 2009 - New ScientistScientists with the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Illinois, home of the Tevatron particle accelerator, say their ageing machine now stands at least a 50% chance of spotting the elusive Higgs boson by the end of next year. The estimate is based on the accelerator's efficiency at ...

Our world may be a giant hologramCould our three dimensions be the ultimate cosmic illusion? A German detector is picking up a hint that we are all mere projections of space-time quanta - For the past seven years, a German physics experiment has been looking for gravitational waves - ripples in space-time thrown off by ...

Stellar nursery found around Milky Way's black hole - space - 23 July 2008 - New Scientist SpaceThe neighborhood around a black hole seems like no place to raise a star. Violent gravitational forces can rip gas clouds apart, making it hard for stars to condense. But astronomers have spotted evidence of very young stars in a ring of gas close to the heart of the Milky Way, where a massive ...
