Physicists at CERN Discover Resonant ‘Ghost’ Force in Super Proton Synchrotron

Physicists at CERN have made a groundbreaking discovery, identifying a previously undetected force within the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS). Published in the journal Nature Physics, the research unveils the existence of a 3D shape that shifts over time, requiring a 4D system of equations for accurate measurement and modeling. The discovery of the resonant ghost is crucial for future work at the facility, shedding light on the intricate dynamics at play within particle accelerators.
