How do you solve a problem like a proton? You smash it to smithereens – then build it back together with machine learning
DOE/Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Berkeley Lab scientists have developed new machine learning algorithms to accelerate the analysis of data collected decades ago by HERA, the world’s most powerful electron-proton collider that ran at the DESY national research center in Germany from 1992 to 2007. Their work could help accelerate technological advancements based on proton spin, and help scientists gain new insight into the strong force, a fundamental property that gives all protons and therefore atoms mass.
