Reason
As I understand it (which I admit is not well), this image was generated by a device that records the movement of particles in three dimensions and then renders it in two. So essentially, this is a computer-generated image. The original data is obviously much more precise than what is contained within this image. Thus there's nothing to prevent an SVG or PNG that would have much more information rather than this relatively low-resolution JPEG. EV is high, however. I will notify original nominator and uploader.
Articles this image appears in
STAR detector, Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, Black hole, History of physics, Particle physics, etc. (EV seems highest in the first two listed).
