, the 142-year-old flagship journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and one of the top peer-reviewed academic journals in the world, manages to convey a blockbuster finding contained in its pages.
“If you open an undergrad physics textbook, it says charged particles go in a circle when [they] go through a magnetic field. So what you can do is… put layer after layer of position sensors [in the particle accelerator]. So, when a charged particle comes through, it records where the particle went,” Kotwal says.Those sensors recorded reams of data for computers to interpret, sort of like a high-tech connect-the-dots.
The researchers made more than a dozen such improvements over the last time they ran this type of experiment. “We describe every one of them, what impact it had and why… compared to the last time,” he says.The laws of nature that physicists believed in would also have made sense to non-physicists until about 1900.
“It became at that point, what we now call the Standard Model, because now it explained one more conundrum, which is, how do masses arise in this whole picture,” he says. “All the elements that we know contain neutrons as well as protons,” Kotwal says. “Without [neutrons], the nucleus of the atom cannot form.”
