In May, Fermilab accelerator experts began to speculate about when the Tevatron collider would hit the inverse femtobarn mark, a measure of the gazillions of collisions produced since March 2001.
Nature still has many surprises left for us. Discovering them is increasingly difficult (and expensive) as we dig deeper into the foundations of the universe.
In February, the Department of Energy's Office of Science and the National Science Foundation asked the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel "to form a committee to write a document" t
