They achieved this by smashing together
gold nuclei at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC).
This soup of subatomic particles, created in collisions of
gold nuclei at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, is yielding other intriguing discoveries.
To measure antiproton interactions, the scientists fired
gold nuclei at each other at nearly the speed of light.
Collisions between
gold nuclei at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) on Long Island, New York, have yielded heavy isotopes of antihydrogen that include a subatomic particle known as an antistrange quark, which is heavier than less unusual up or down quarks.

Smashed together
at 200 gigaelectronvolts, the
gold nuclei unleash their constituent particles in a «quark - gluon plasma.»
It does this by slamming the
nuclei of heavy atoms such as
gold into one another
at nearly the speed of light.
The use of intermediate size
nuclei is expected to result in intermediate energy density - not as high as in earlier runs colliding two beams of
gold ions
at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), but more than was produced by colliding a beam of
gold ions with much lighter deuterons.
