AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy), AD-6, is an experiment at the Antiproton Decelerator facility at CERN. Its primary goal is to measure directly the effect of Earth's gravitational field on antihydrogen atoms with significant precision. [ 1 ]
The DAMA/NaI experiment [1] [2] investigated the presence of dark matter particles in the galactic halo by exploiting the model-independent annual modulation signature. Based on the Earth's orbit around the Sun and the solar system's speed with respect to the center of the galaxy (which on short time scales can be considered constant), the Earth should be exposed to a higher flux of dark ...
More recent experiments prove the quantum nature of molecules made of 810 atoms and with a mass of 10 123 Da. [45] As of 2019, this has been pushed to molecules of 25 000 Da. [46] In these experiments the build-up of such interference patterns could be recorded in real time and with single molecule sensitivity. [47]
Bremsstrahlung produced by a high-energy electron deflected in the electric field of an atomic nucleus. In particle physics, bremsstrahlung / ˈ b r ɛ m ʃ t r ɑː l ə ŋ / [1] (German pronunciation: [ˈbʁɛms.ʃtʁaːlʊŋ] ⓘ; from German bremsen 'to brake' and Strahlung 'radiation') is electromagnetic radiation produced by the deceleration of a charged particle when deflected by ...
In mechanics and physics, shock is a sudden acceleration caused, for example, by impact, drop, kick, earthquake, or explosion. Shock is a transient physical excitation. Shock describes matter subject to extreme rates of force with respect to time. Shock is a vector that has units of an acceleration (rate of change of velocity).
In January 2022 the experiment published its results setting constraints for dark matter with Planck-scale mass with mass between 8.3×10 6 GeV/c 2 and 1.2×10 19 GeV/c 2 and cross section from 1×10 −23 cm 2 to 2.4×10 −18 cm 2. These were the first results for dark matter on this super-heavy mass scale.
Dark matter constitutes about 26.5% [11] of the mass–energy density of the universe. The remaining 4.9% [11] comprises all ordinary matter observed as atoms, chemical elements, gas and plasma, the stuff of which visible planets, stars and galaxies are made. The great majority of ordinary matter in the universe is unseen, since visible stars ...
The Shapiro time delay effect, or gravitational time delay effect, is one of the four classic Solar System tests of general relativity. Radar signals passing near a massive object take slightly longer to travel to a target and longer to return than they would if the mass of the object were not present.
