Physicists measure the mass of subatomic particles in units called electron volts, or eV. According to theory, the W boson ...

This week, see what makes loggerhead sea turtles “dance,” track a cosmic “ghost particle,” uncover an ancient basilica, and ...

Alex Keshavarzi digs into the showdown between two competing Standard Model predictions of the muon, which may reveal undiscovered particles hiding in the vacuum ...

"We would like to understand the difference between these systems, which holds the clue to understand just how many cosmic ...

A large team of researchers working on the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer Collaboration, which has been analyzing eleven years' ...

Cosmic rays coming from outside the Solar System bring these particles closer to the Sun, where they experience changes ...

A huge detector in the Mediterranean Sea spotted the most energetic neutrino from space to date. The particle could shed light on the universe’s most extreme phenomena.

In a first, US researchers have observed fractional excitons, a new class of quantum particles, that were only theoretically known to exist so far.

In quantum physics, subatomic particles behave strangely—they can be in two places simultaneously, move through solid objects, and communicate instantly over long distances. Scientists are studying ...

Researchers at Argonne have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate ...

The turtles rely on Earth’s magnetic field to help them navigate in two ... Astronomers detected the highest-energy cosmic “ghost particle” ever found in an unlikely place: the bottom ...
