Measured timeline

📍 How it ended

Oxygen collisions at the LHC showed new indications of an extreme state of matter, allowing experts to recreate the universe's first liquid. The particle accelerator observed a single quark leaving a wake through a trillion-degree soup of quarks and gluons.

This event provided a new window into the early universe just after the Big Bang.

Answered

What state of matter was recreated?

A trillion-degree soup of quarks and gluons, described by BBC Science Focus Magazine as the Universe's first liquid.

How was this state of matter achieved?

Through oxygen collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

What specific observation was made regarding quarks?

According to Space Daily, the LHC saw a single quark leave a wake through the matter that physicists had predicted for years.

Oxygen collisions at the LHC have provided new indications of an extreme state of matter. This research has recreated a trillion-degree 'soup' of quarks and gluons, described as the universe's first liquid, which existed in the microseconds following the Big Bang.

Coverage from CERN and Phys.org highlights the specific use of oxygen collisions. Space Daily reports that the LHC has observed a single quark leaving a predicted wake through this matter, while Space characterizes the achievement as the culmination of a decades-long quest.

Future attention remains on this new window into the early universe and the behavior of quarks and gluons within this extreme state.
