Juno's findings provide fresh evidence for how and where cosmic rays form.

It measures about 15 miles (25 kilometres) in diameter and rotates 11 times every second, faster than a helicopter rotor.

Light is scattered by light – via virtual particles. (CREDIT: Vienna University of Technology) That’s why the upcoming results from the Fermilab experiment are so important. Scientists there are about ...

Fundamental particles called quarks can be created in quantum-correlated pairs. These correlations can be passed on to larger particles that form from the quarks. The strong force differs from others ...

About 80 percent of the universe’s mass is thought to consist of dark matter. And yet, little is known about the composition and structure of the particles that make up dark matter, presenting ...

The new CMS study examined collisions between oxygen nuclei, which are much smaller than lead nuclei. Oxygen contains just 16 ...

At the heart of this puzzle lies light-by-light scattering, a quantum process where particles of light, or photons, briefly transform into other particles. Ordinarily, light waves pass through each ...
