In the development of particle physics, researchers have introduced an innovative particle encoding mechanism that promises to improve how information in particle physics is digitally registered and ...

Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same uncomfortable conclusion: something is producing signals that the Standard Model of ...

A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden extra dimensions. These dimensions could twist and evolve over time, forming ...

The Large Hadron Collider, the world’s largest atom smasher, has shut down for a planned 4-year upgrade that will make it 10 ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle proposed for decades to explain puzzling neutrino behavior. Their high-precision ...

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 ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator, is entering a major upgrade phase.

Scientists have proposed a new kind of subatomic particle to explain another particle's mysterious disintegration. The kaon, a special case of meson particle, is made of one quark and one antiquark.
