Guardian : Researchers from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presenting their latest results at the European Physical Society’s Conference on High Energy Physics in Vienna. The ATLAS team confirmed an unexpected finding from the CMS team during the previous LHC run—that regardless of the incident collision angle of the particles, there is an increased probability they are being emitted at a similar azimuthal angle. That behavior is expected in heavy particle collisions but not in proton–proton collisions. From the new run, ATLAS also released the first measurement of the jets of hadrons produced from the collision of quarks and gluons. The measurement, which is in line with the measurements taken during the previous run, reveals that the higher collision energy is producing noticeably more frequent jets.
