Several centuries ago, a branch of alchemy called chrysopoeia is said to have explored the possibilities of transforming ...

“If there’s new physics at the energy range where LHC is probing, you would have expected that it would also produce a dipole moment substantially bigger than the limit we now have,” Hinds says.

The electric dipole moment of an electron (eEDM), the electric ... involved in running particle colliders like the LHC, experiments to measure everyday particles such as an electron can often ...

And it's all thanks to a little weasel. According to internal documents, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, a 27-kilometer underground ring used to collide particles at nearly the speed of ...
