One of the first to propose this idea was physicist Richard Feynman, who, in a now-famous 1981 lecture, stated that to ...

A team of young scientists paused their new physics searches to develop an innovative machine-learning tool, which is now ...

The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, a flagship astronomy and astrophysics project currently under construction on a mountaintop in Chile, will be named for astronomer Vera Rubin, a key figure in the ...

A large and unexpected excess of top quark pairs has the physics community excited, but the interpretation is still up for debate. In 1995, Alexander Grohsjean cut out a story from the local German ...

Scientists around the world are testing ways to further boost the power of particle accelerators while drastically shrinking their size.

Yesterday, at the annual Rencontres de Moriond conference taking place in La Thuile, Italy, the LHCb collaboration at CERN reported a new milestone in our understanding of the subtle yet profound ...

Once the most popular framework for physics beyond the Standard Model, supersymmetry is facing a reckoning—but many researchers are not giving up on it yet.

Neutrinos don’t seem to get their mass in the same way as other particles in the Standard Model. In 1998, researchers made a discovery that challenged their understanding of particle physics and ...

“A key challenge for quantum networks is being able to interface between many different types of quantum systems and whatever you choose to be the network.” ...

Just over 40 years ago, a new theory about the early universe provided a way to tackle multiple cosmological conundrums at once.

The average banana produces a particle of antimatter roughly once every 75 minutes. US-based scientists and students working on research and experiments with the Large Hadron Collider contribute to a ...
