Novel canonical transformation provides insights into many-particle physics
Date: February 16, 2016

The concepts of rotation and angular momentum play a crucial role in many areas of physics, ranging from nuclear spectroscopy to molecular collisions and precision measurements. In a new paper, researchers introduce a technique to understand and calculate angular momentum in settings where many particles interact with each other, so-called many-particle systems.

There are no permanent black holes - Only transient black holes - Stephen Hawking

Hawking proposed the idea that black holes are only "temporary horizons" and they hold light and information temporarily before releasing them back into space in garbled form.

His work addresses the "black-wall firewall paradox" first proposed by theoretical physicist Joseph Polchinski and his colleagues almost two years ago.

Higg's Boson - Research Papers - Bibliography

Although they are still hedging a bit, physicists at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, announced on 4th July 20120,  that they had found the long-sought Higgs boson.
