The subatomic particles are divided into three types, protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons. A proton is a stable subatomic particle with a positive electric charge in the nucleus of an atom.

The study introduces a theoretical particle that would have initiated the transition to dark matter. But scientists already know that the subatomic particles known as electrons can undergo a ...

The new subatomic particle is called the beauty-lambda baryon.It belongs to a group of particles known as baryons, which include protons and neutrons. These particles are made of three quarks.

The Earth is subjected to a hail of subatomic particles from the Sun and beyond our solar system which could be the cause of glitches that afflict our phones and computers. And the risk is growing ...

The peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon in a U.S. laboratory experiment is making scientists increasingly suspect they are missing something in their understanding of physics ...

Although new subatomic particles are found relatively often, and reports of tentative discoveries are more common still, this one stands out because it was predicted more than 70 years ago by the ...

Particles called muons wobble when you put them in magnetic fields, and a team of more than 200 physicists in seven countries have spent the last six years measuring the speed of those wobbles.

Neutrinos are ghostly subatomic particles that can travel in a straight line for billions of light-years, passing unhindered through galaxies, stars and anything else in their path.

String theory is a mathematical description of nature that requires space to possess several additional dimensions beyond the ordinary three. These extra dimensions, too small to notice in ...

Dark matter formed when fast particles slowed down and got heavy, new theory says Date: May 14, 2025 Source: Dartmouth College Summary: Researchers propose a new theory for the origin of dark ...

Hot, fast-moving particles dominated the cosmos after the burst of energy known as the Big Bang that scientists believe triggered the universe's expansion 13.7 billion years ago.
