- 1New Model for Matter Formation After Big Bang Found at RHIC▼Scientists Discover New Model for Matter Formation After Big Bang in RHIC Experiments
Scientists working at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) have reported a new model for how matter formed after the Big Bang. The research sheds light on conditions in the early universe, where a hot, dense state known as quark-gluon plasma existed moments after the Big Bang. Details of the model and its experimental support were announced in recent coverage of the RHIC experiments.
