An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

The Standard Model is an "astoundingly successful" theory in particle physics, detailing the behavior and interactions of 17 fundamental particles (12 fermions and 5 bosons), with thousands of precise ...

Scientists are a step closer to solving one of the universe's biggest mysteries as new research finds evidence that two of ...

As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is “When are you going to find something?” Resisting the temptation to sarcastically ...

Particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles is one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for deviations from ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

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

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...

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

Measuring the mass of W bosons took 10 years – and the result was not what physicists expected. PM Images/Digital Vision via Getty Images “You can do it quickly, you can do it cheaply, or you can do ...
