Brookhaven National Laboratory's collider goes out with a bang The Brookhaven National Laboratory's (BNL) Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider completed its last run last Friday after a quarter-century of data collection.

"The final run of RHIC was less of a memorial and more of a celebration of a new beginning. RHIC will be revamped to turn into an electron-ion collider," @wshu.org reports. #RHIC #ElectronIonCollider

#RHIC operations have come to an end, and #ElectronIonCollider preparations are ramping up.

The U.S. Department of Energy approved Critical Decision 3B for the EIC, authorizing the second phase of long-lead procurements.

This decision enables us to prepare for the construction phase.

Physicists get a peek at how matter is born from "nothing" Spin correlations in the heart of a particle collider may help crack one of the biggest mysteries known, said physicist Zhoudunming Tu.

"A window into how visible matter emerges from the 'nothing' of vacuum has been opened by physicists" at #RHIC.

AI Streamlines Deluge of Data from Particle Collisions Custom algorithm compresses particle detector data and speeds processing to capture more collisions for discoveries

Our scientists have developed a custom #AI algorithm to streamline massive datasets from particle detectors.

The algorithm uses a neural network to compress "sparse” data, so detectors can record more collisions. #RHIC #ElectronIonCollider

The only U.S. particle collider shuts down – so a new one may rise The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise from its ashes.

#RHIC made surprising discoveries about the plasma that filled the early universe, "from which the particles that make up stars, galaxies, planets — and, eventually, us — descended."

Over 25 years, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider generated roughly 300 trillion particle collisions, collected about 450 petabytes of data, involved more than 3,500 scientists, and so much more. #RHIC

ATLAS Confirms Collective Nature of Quark Soup's Radial Expansion Particles pushed outward from heavy ion collisions offer new insight into fluid nature of quark-gluon plasma

“Flow” helped physicists discover the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) at #RHIC.

Now, a different type of flow seen in data from @atlasexperiment.bsky.social provides fresh insight into another aspect of the QGP’s viscosity.

Take a look at particle tracks inside the sPHENIX detector at #RHIC.

While particle collisions produce a deluge of data, most of the volume of this house-sized detector is empty.

Our scientists just developed an #AI algorithm to compress this "sparse" data so detectors can record many more events.

More Signs of Phase-change 'Turbulence' in Nuclear Matter STAR Collaboration unveils most precise data yet in search for a ‘critical point' in nuclear phase transitions

Scientists at #RHIC have spotted more signs of a possible critical point in the nuclear phase diagram.

Like turbulence marking the boundary between weather systems, fluctuations in the number of protons emerging from particle collisions could mark a critical point between phases of nuclear matter.
