About Quantum Universe

The discovery of a Higgs boson and the first direct detection of gravitational waves are among the most spectacular recent successes in science. They support two fundamental concepts in physics, the generation of mass of elementary particles and the dynamics of spacetime.

The many faces of the top quark mass

DESY scientists have developed a new way to measure various aspects of the mass of the top quark with unprecedented accuracy. They were also able to experimentally detect a fundamental quantum effect, the so-called "running" of mass, in the top quark, for the first time. They used collision data from the Large Hadron...

Dark Matter search enters new chapter

The international ALPS II (“Any light particle search”) collaboration installed the first of 24 superconducting magnets today, marking the start of the installation of a unique particle physics experiment to look for dark matter. Located at the German research centre DESY in Hamburg, it is set to start taking data in 2021...
