The Center of a Black Hole: Infinitely Massive Singularity or Portal into another Universe?
6 Implications of Finding a Higgs Boson Particle
This track is an example of simulated data modelled for the ATLAS detector on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The Higgs boson is produced in the collision of two protons at 14 TeV and quickly decays into four muons, a type of heavy electron that is not absorbed by the detector. The tracks of the muons are shown in yellow.
How Gravitational Waves Work (Infographic)
Einstein's general theory of relativity suggests, among other things, that masses in space distort the geometry of space-time. In addition, moving objects emit waves of gravitational radiation that carry energy away into space.

Formula predicts research papers' future citations
It sounds like a science administrator’s dream — or a scientist's worst nightmare: a formula that predicts how often research papers will be cited. But a team of data scientists now says it could be possible. They report in Science that a simple model allows reasonably accurate predictions of a paper’s future performance on the basis of about five years of its citation history. http://www.nature.com/news/formula-predicts-research-papers-future-citations-1.13881?WT.mc_id=PIN_NatureNews
Physicists plan to build a bigger LHC
Thought the Large Hadron Collider was big? Think again. Physicists are now planning an even BIGGER collider - with a 100km ring! Read about it here http://www.nature.com/news/physicists-plan-to-build-a-bigger-lhc-1.14149?WT.mc_id=PIN_NatureNews Nature Publishing Group
C.V. Raman's work in physics was influential in the growth of science in India. He was the recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics (becoming the first Indian to win this honor) in 1930 for the discovery that when light traverses a transparent material, some of the light that is deflected changes in wavelength. This phenomenon was called "Raman Scattering" and is now more commonly known as the "Raman Effect".
Exploring the secrets of our universe
ATLAS is a particle physics experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The ATLAS detector is searching for new discoveries in the head-on collisions of protons of extraordinarily high energy. Here's a "Black Hole" event superimposed...
