The world’s largest particle collider is set to get a brand new toy, named for the oldest guy in the Bible. The toy–a detector, actually—is called MATHUSLA. Researchers submitted a conceptual design report for the detector’s design to the preprint server arXiv on March 26, where it’s now hosted. “MATHUSLA” is a merciful and incredibly forced acronym for the MAssive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles. The acronym is a reference to Methuselah, a biblical figure who lived nearly

When it comes to detecting smoke, time is of the essence. That is why we designed a test that simulates a real-life emergency. The first thing to know is that there are two main types of fires that these products are designed for: smoldering fires and flaming fires. A smoldering (or slow-burning) fire refers to the combustion that occurs at the surface of a solid material. Smoldering fires produce large amounts of thick smoke but can't sustain a flame. Think of a cigarette slowly burning but n

In the mid-1960s, the Nobel Prize–winning physicist Luis Alvarez had a wild idea. He proposed using muons, highly penetrating subatomic particles created when cosmic rays strike Earth’s atmosphere, to search for hidden chambers within one of the pyramids of Giza. These muon particles are heavyweight cousins of electrons that travel close to the speed of light. They can penetrate through many meters of solid rock, including the limestone and granite blocks used to build the pyramids. But some of
