Scientists observe collective behavior of femtoscopic droplets at CERN

At CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), lead atom nuclei, accelerated in opposite directions, collide at speeds close to the speed of light. In such scattering processes, the quarks and gluons that make up these nuclei collide, creating other quarks and gluons, produced by the fundamental interaction known as the "strong interaction." The number of particles created is around one hundred times greater than the initial number.
