Particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles is one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for deviations from ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in equations rather than explained from first principles. A new proposal argues that ...

As well as particle physics, neutrinos touch astroparticle physics, cosmology, astrophysics, nuclear physics and geophysics, ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have used computer simulations to model how a composite material reacts to loading. They studied a particle model of a pillar of stiffer ...

The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion of the universe.

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

July 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of one of the greatest discoveries made at CERN, the international particle-physics research centre near Geneva, Switzerland: namely, weak neutral currents. The ...

After years of careful investigation, researchers working on the Micro Booster Neutrino Experiment (MicroBooNE) have determined that a ...

The Theoretical Advanced Study Institute in Elementary Particle Physics (TASI) recently concluded its 40th year, bringing 65 students from around the world to Boulder to delve into the “Frontiers of ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about long-standing neutrino anomalies. After many years of investigation, resea ...
