Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same ...
In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, ...
The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle ...
The photograph, titled “Underwater Hunting,” was a finalist for the 2025 Global Physics Photowalk. The competition, held ...
What is meant, when an experiment anticipates less than a quarter of an event, and four are registered by the detector? That number discrepancy lies at the heart of a new conundrum of kaons: ...
A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole ...
Before the RHIC shut down, it was the only operational particle collider in the U.S. and one of two heavy-ion colliders in the world, the other being the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.
NPR's Ayesha Rascoe speaks to Esra Barlas Yücel, a researcher at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, about Fermilab's most precise measurements of the muon particle's magnetic wobble. It's ...
Scientists have used a novel new approach to discover the potential origins of the sun goddess particle Amaterasu, the second most energetic cosmic ray ever to be detected striking Earth.
OpenAI's GPT-5.2 derived a new formula for gluon interactions, overturning assumptions of zero amplitude and advancing theoretical physics.
Particle physics is a branch of physics that studies the elementary constituents of matter and radiation, and the interactions between them. It is also called "high energy physics", because many ...
If plans by the UK’s science funding body go ahead, we won’t be able to benefit from Britain’s membership of Cern and other large international projects, says Jon Butterworth, professor of physics at ...
