Scientific Researchers Observe Simultaneous Appearance of Photon and Top-Quark
Scientific researchers first observed the simultaneous appearance of photon and top-wards, which became a significant achievement for The collaboration of Atlas, working with a huge detector on a large adrone collider (tank) in Cern. This discovery can contribute to a deeper understanding of electrical and mysterious ties with the Higgs field.
According to the standard model of physics of elementary particles, the Higgs field gives the mass to some fundamental particles through the mechanism of violation of the symmetry with an electriclaboration. This concept was first proposed in 1964 and confirmed in 2012, when physicists from Atlas and CMS first observed the Higgs Bozon.
The main objective of the study was to study the decay products of individual top-slopes in order to identify deviations from predictions of the standard model and get new information about the mechanism of violation of the electro-and -ilant symmetry. However, this turned out to be a difficult task, since the production of single top quarks occurs through weak interaction, which makes their observation difficult.
To overcome this complexity, the team of researchers searched for evidence of the existence of an alternative particle pair in the ATLAS data. They tried to observe a single top quark along with a photon interacting with a top quark.
The results were very promising. The process was observed with a high degree of confidence, significantly exceeding the level of trust 5, which is the standard in this area. The statistical significance of the observed events was 9.8σ, which makes it extremely unlikely by the accidental occurrence of such events.
The number of recorded signals approximately corresponded to theoretical predictions, exceeding them by 30-40%. Now the ATLAS team hopes to examine in more detail the properties of events with top quark and photon, which can be a key step towards understanding the nature of the Higgs Bozon, which gives the mass to other particles.
