These experiments will be done both at electron - positron collider facilities called B factories and at high -
energy hadron colliders, because each type of facility offers different capabilities to contribute to the study of this detail of the laws of physics — a detail that is responsible for such an important property of the universe as the fact that there is anything there at all!

The nuclear phase diagram: RHIC sits in the
energy «sweet spot» for exploring the transition between ordinary matter made of
hadrons and the early universe matter known as quark - gluon plasma.
He said that the government had consistently expressed its support in principle for the large
hadron collider (LHC) project — widely acknowledged to be the right next step for CERN and equally for high -
energy particle physics.
The STAR collaboration's exploration of the «nuclear phase diagram» shows signs of a sharp border — a first - order phase transition — between the
hadrons that make up ordinary atomic nuclei and the quark - gluon plasma (QGP) of the early universe when the QGP is produced at relatively low
energies / temperatures.
Photons with a billion times more
energy than photons of visible light exhibit properties once thought to belong solely to
