Physicists Detect Subatomic 'Top Quark' -- Without Its Antimatter Partner Science Daily
A group of 50 international physicists, led by UC Riverside's Ann Heinson, has detected for the first time a subatomic particle, the top quark, produced without the simultaneous production of its antimatter partner -- an extremely rare event. The heaviest known elementary particle, the top quark is one of the fundamental building blocks of nature and understood to be an ingredient of the nuclear
Two of Nature's Fireworks Come to Lubbock KCBD-TV Lubbock
Two rare phenomena could be visible in the skies over Lubbock but you might have to stay up pretty late to see it. They include a meteor shower and possibly an Aurora Borealis also known as the "northern lights." NewsChannel 11's Justin Michaels has more.
How Plastic Solar Cells Turn Sunlight Into Electricity Science Daily
A new analytical technique, featured on the cover of this week's issue of the Journal of Physical Chemistry B, could lead to the development of cheaper, more efficient solar cells. The information that this technique provides is a critical step in the development of a new class of solar cells, which promise significant savings in production costs compared to conventional silicon-based cells.
New Instrumentation Helps Scientists Better Predict Space Weather Science Daily
New instrumentation and observing techniques, being developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, are helping scientists better understand and predict space weather.

Creating monoenergetic electron beams on a tabletop PhysicsWeb
A physicist's fantasy of owning a "tabletop" particle accelerator has been brought one step closer to reality according to research done in France. The accelerator uses two laser pulses to drive an electric field, thus producing monoenergetic electron energies of up to 250 MeV. But unlike previous attempts, the electron beams are stable enough to have practical applications in areas such as
