Disclosing quantum corrections to electromagnetic interactions of tau leptons
In quantum electrodynamics (QED), the quantum theory of electromagnetic interactions, the magnetic dipole moment of a particle acquires quantum corrections originating from interactions with virtual photons and other particles, often referred to as the anomalous magnetic moment of that particle.

Illuminating the Subatomic Shadows: Unravelling the rarest signatures of the Higgs boson
A proton-proton collision at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, recorded by CMS, compatible with the production of a Higgs boson decaying to a J/ψ meson, which decays to two muons (red lines), and a high-energy photon (green box, top).

In search of the strong interaction: the pomeron
At the subatomic level, interactions between particles are mediated through the exchange of special particles, the force carriers.

Jets elucidate how partons evolve into hadrons
Among all the elementary particles, quarks and gluons (partons) are the only ones that cannot be observed in isolation.

A Step Deeper into Elementary Particle Interactions with ZZ+jets
The CMS Collaboration has recently reported a new study of ZZ+jets production, a process described by the Standard Model of particle physics.

A new tri-boson process discovery
Bosons are elementary particles in the field of particle physics, distinguished by having a spin quantum number with an integer value.

A fractal tree of quarks and gluons
Quarks and gluons are the elementary particles that make up protons and neutrons, which are in turn the building blocks of the nucleus of every atom.
