Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current ...

They're tiny, invisible, and travel across the universe. And trillions of them just flew through your body. What are they? Neutrinos ‒ and scientists Wednesday announced the discovery of the most ...

"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — potentially revealing new physics." ...

A joint effort between two of the world’s largest neutrino experiments has brought scientists closer to understanding how the ...

For more than 40 years, physicist John Conway has led research in high-energy particle physics, a field driven by a simple ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew.

Researchers from TUM, working at CERN, have made a groundbreaking discovery that reveals how deuterons are formed. Another long-standing question in particle physics has been answered. Scientists ...

Astronomers at NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory have found evidence of a particle jet coming from a supermassive black hole in the early universe. The source of the X-ray jet is a quasar, or a ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

The universe's matter-antimatter asymmetry, where matter significantly outweighs antimatter despite their theoretically equal creation at the Big Bang, remains a major unsolved problem in physics.
