Gold Collisions at RHIC Reveal Unexpected Pattern in Big Bang Soup

Physicists colliding gold nuclei at near-light speed observed an unexpected particle scattering pattern in the quark-gluon plasma, which could refine models of early-universe matter condensation. The finding is preliminary and requires confirmation, but it challenges existing assumptions about the plasma's properties.
