His topics include the quest for a theory of everything, Rutherford's scattering experiments, the first accelerators, the Tevatron and the Super Proton Synchrotron, building the Large Hadron Collider, looking for portals to higher dimensions, and microscopic black holes.

Collider; the search for the world's smallest particles

Together they spent many years helping to build and run a series of particle physics experiments on the Proton Synchrotron at Rutherford, at the DESY laboratory in Hamburg and at CERN in Geneva.

Peter D. Wroath, 1926-2008

Recent results on intermediate vector boson properties at the CERN super proton synchrotron collider, Phys.

Neutron measurements and the weak nucleon-nucleon interaction

Since 1994, seven separate CERN teams have studied lead-lead and lead-gold collisions at the laboratory's Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) accelerator.

Melting nuclei re-create Big Bang broth

Notable "firsts" were the Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR) proton-proton collider commissioned in 1971, and the proton-antiproton collider at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), which came in 1981 and produced massive W and Z particles two years later, confirming the unified theory of electromagnetic and weak forces.

CERN to use InterCAP 'ActiveCGM' products for Large Hadron Collider ...

At the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN) in Geneva, researchers use the Super Proton Synchrotron to strip heavy atoms of their electrons, and they accelerate the bare nuclei at targets composed of various materials.

Microcosmic bang: mashing atomic nuclei to create a quark soup

The experiment used the CERNSuper Proton Synchrotron (SPS) to accelerate ions of oxygen to two different energies, 60 billion electronvolts (60 GeV) for each neutron and proton in the oxygen nucleus and 200 GeV per neutron and proton, and struck them against standing targets of lead.

On the trail of elemental matter; experiments now being analyzed seek ...

Now, groups of nuclear physicists are going to one of the world's foremost particle-physics laboratories, CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, to use its most powerful accelerator, the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), to energize not protons but atomic nuclei.
