  • Search for rare decay of neutral B mesons to two muons

    Search for rare decay of neutral B mesons to two muons

    At a CERN seminar today, CMS presented results for the search for new physics in the decay of Bs and B0 mesons to two muons, taking into account all of the 4.9 fb−1 of data collected in 2011. The results — upper limits of 7.7 x 10−9 (Bs) and 1.8 x 10−9 (B0) at 95%…

  • How did Matter form?

    Colliding heavy nuclei Clues to the early Universe The Universe has changed a great deal in the 13.7 billion years since the Big Bang, but the basic building blocks of everything from microbes to galaxies were signed, sealed and delivered in the first few millionths of a second.
