Interaction pointIn particle physics, an interaction point (IP) is the place where particles collide in an accelerator experiment. The nominal interaction point is the design position, which may differ from the real or physics interaction point, where the particles actually collide. A related, but distinct, concept is the primary vertex: the reconstructed location of an individual particle collision. For fixed target experiments, the interaction point is the point where beam and target interact. For colliders, it is the place where the beams interact.
Design numériquevignette|366x366px Incluant l’ensemble des pratiques utilisant des matières informatisées comme moyen et comme fin dans la conception, le design numérique (également appelé design d'interaction ou design interactif) définit les structures et comportements de systèmes interactifs. Apparaissant comme un nouveau champ issu de la révolution numérique, il réinvente la manière de façonner le design en mettant l’accent sur l’expérience de l’acteur et non l’objet en soi.
Neutral particle oscillationIn particle physics, neutral particle oscillation is the transmutation of a particle with zero electric charge into another neutral particle due to a change of a non-zero internal quantum number, via an interaction that does not conserve that quantum number. Neutral particle oscillations were first investigated in 1954 by Murray Gell-mann and Abraham Pais. For example, a neutron cannot transmute into an antineutron as that would violate the conservation of baryon number.
