This special topics edition of the Progress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics covers a symposium celebrating the 50-year history of the Kobayashi–Maskawa Theory, highlighting its impact from theoretical and experimental perspectives.

This study explores the thermodynamic properties of finite-temperature large-N gauge theories, revealing two significant discoveries that could be instrumental for understanding the strong nuclear force and quantum gravity.

Researchers demonstrate the viability of a radio-frequency linear accelerator to accelerate stopped muons to the speed of light.
