The inside of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Rochester physicists working on the detector have observed that the spin entanglement between top quarks and top antiquarks persists at long distances and high speeds.

A swirling black hole hiding within the features of the black holes that merged to create it. Credit: Robert Lea Astronomers believe that at the heart of most, if not all, galaxies lies a gigantic black hole with a mass millions or even billions of times greater than that of our Sun. These supermassive black … Read more

Neuroscience News logo for mobile.

Resume: Researchers developed a method to measure synaptic strength, precision of plasticity and information storage in the brain. Using information theory, researchers discovered that synapses can store ten times more information than previously thought. The findings advance the understanding of learning, memory and how these processes evolve or deteriorate. This breakthrough could stimulate research into … Read more
