Clocking nature's heaviest elementary particle: Do top quarks play by Einstein's rules the whole day and night?
In a first measurement of its kind at the LHC, the CMS experiment tests whether top quarks adhere to Einstein’s special theory of relativity, and improves the bounds on noncompliance by up to a factor of one hundred with respect to previous results.
