Using muon spin rotation spectroscopy, researchers from Japan and Canada have successfully captured the rapid conversion of ...

"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

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 ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

You can't see, feel, hear, taste or smell them, but tiny particles from space are constantly raining down on us.

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

A photon was apparently detected in two places at once in a twist on the classic double-slit experiment, but many physicists ...

Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

For more than 40 years, physicist John Conway has led research in high-energy particle physics, a field driven by a simple yet profound goal: to understand what the universe is made of and how it ...
