CMS is probing for internal structure within quarks, down to 10^-20 meters, seeking evidence that these particles aren’t truly fundamental. This search follows a historical pattern of discovering substructure, like finding quarks within protons in 1968. The CMS experiment has now probed the internal structure of quarks to a scale of 10^-20 meters, searching for evidence they are not, in fact, fundamental particles. Building on a legacy of discovery that revealed molecules are composed of atoms, and ... [4162 chars]
