Particle physics experiment, artwork
Particle physics experiment. Artwork of tracks of particles detected following a collision in a particle accelerator. In these experiments, particles are accelerated to high energies near the speed of light. They are then collided with other particles or a stationary target. The resulting release of energy can lead to the creation of new high-energy particles identified by their tracks and the particles produced as they decay. Analysis of the results can help confirm theories about the fundamental nature of the universe and its particles.
