The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...
The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...
Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...
China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator marked a sharp turn in the ...
New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about ...
Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are conducting a study to assess key science questions that will drive research in the field of elementary particle physics for the next ...
In 1963, Maria Goeppert Mayer won the Nobel Prize in physics for describing the layered, shell-like structures of atomic nuclei. No woman has won since. One of the many women who, in a different world ...
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 ...
A high-level advisory group to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) last week approved a new set of funding priorities related to particle physics research — and Yale’s leadership aligns strongly with ...
