For almost a century, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle has stood as one of the defining ideas of quantum physics: a ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing them into tiny targets.

Knowable Magazine reports that neutrinos may help explain the universe's missing antimatter, shedding light on ...

Researchers Mitsuyoshi Kamba, Naoki Hara, and Kiyotaka Aikawa of the University of Tokyo have successfully demonstrated ...

ITHACA, N.Y. - The muon is a tiny particle, but it has the giant potential to upend our understanding of the subatomic world and reveal an undiscovered type of fundamental physics. That possibility is ...

“There’s a lot of meanings for ‘small,’” says Janet Conrad, a particle physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

It's true. Muons - you know, those subatomic particles, also known as fat electrons - wobble faster than we suspected. By we, of course, I mean they - the particle physicists obsessed with things like ...

Two recent studies by Professor Stefano Profumo at the University of California, Santa Cruz, propose theories that attempt to answer one of the most fundamental open questions in modern physics: What ...

A magical particle acceleration 'spectacle' is unfolding around distant Jupiter. This is not a scene from a science fiction ...

Neutrino oscillation is weird, but it may be weird in a useful way, because it might allow physicists to probe certain ...
