The ATLAS experiment has been taking data efficiently since LHC collisions started, first at the injection energy of 450 GeV/beam and at 1.18 TeV/beam in 2009, then at 3.5 TeV/beam in 2010. Many results have already been obtained based on…
The observation of a new particle in the search for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson at the LHC, reported by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, is a milestone in the quest to understand electroweak symmetry breaking. The evidence at the…
Young energetic pulsars will likely be the largest class of Galactic sources observed by GLAST, with many hundreds detected. Many will be unknown as radio pulsars, making pulsation detection dependent on radio and/or x-ray observations or…
