Will we see unknown physics in interactions between Higgs particles?
Secondary particle trajectories recorded during proton collisions in the ATLAS detector indicate that a single Higgs boson was present in this event. Credit: IFJ PAN / CERN / ATLAS experiment Since the launch of the Large Hadron Collider, it has continued to study the Higgs boson and search for traces of physics beyond existing models of elementary particles. Scientists working…

Ancient climate analysis reveals unknown global processes
A review of studies from more than 100 geographic sites around the world, providing an overview of all continental landmasses, revealed widespread gaps in the geological record globally. Credit: Bernd Dittrich/Unsplash According to the highly cited traditional model, cooling and a significant drop in sea level around 34 million years ago should have led to widespread continental erosion, depositing vast…
