An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

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

Experimental particle physicists working at the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory have found ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about ...

Everything we see consists of molecules and atoms, which in turn consist of atomic nuclei and electrons. The atomic nuclei contain positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons, which consist of ...

Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a long-hypothesized “mystery particle” likely doesn’t exist. Using the MicroBooNE ...

Kétévi Assamagan describes how US particle physicists are trying to make their field work for people of all genders, ethnicities and backgrounds. This year, thousands of particle physicists thrashed ...

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

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 ...
