The latest issue of symmetry has been published online and will be on the way to subscribers in the next few days. (You can always get to the current print issue by clicking on the "View Current Issue" label at the top right of this page, or go direct to www.symmetrymagazine.org.)
In this issue, you can read about how BaBar physicists at SLAC found the long-sought bottom-most bottomonium particle, and one of our intrepid reporters caught up with that particle, known as eta sub b, for an interview.
Well-known physicists Rocky Kolb and Joe Lykken went head-to-head in a debate about who would be first to reveal the nature of the dark universe, egged on by fight referee Michael Turner.
Old physics equipment never dies, it just... well, read the story and find out just what happens to the remains of retired particle physics equipment at Fermilab.
Also in this issue, see the logbook entry for the first LHC beams, the meaning of a magnet quench in 60 seconds, a provocative commentary about forecasting LHC results, and our usual selections of short takes on the life and culture of the particle physics world in signal to background.
Here is a summary of the issue in pictures!
