The Nobel-Prize-winning physicist Peter Higgs has died at age 94. He was celebrated for his work on the mass of subatomic particles. Today the University of Edinburgh announced the death of the Nobel ...

The physicist César Lattes, who is honored today (July 11) in a Google Doodle, is famous across Latin America for his discovery of the pion — a subatomic particle produced by shockwaves from exploding ...

When protons smash against a beryllium target in CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), the resulting subatomic chaos produces a smattering of kaons—a kind of subatomic particle. Physicists predict ...

Harald Fox receives funding from UKRI. Peter Higgs, who gave his name to the subatomic particle known as the Higgs boson, has died aged 94. He was always a modest man, especially when considering that ...

What is everything made of? It’s the fundamental question that lies at the heart of particle physics. Today, scientists are using gigantic, atom-smashing particle accelerators to probe deeper into the ...

For more than a decade, physicists have argued (and counter-argued) that a subatomic particle can be separated from certain quantum properties, such as its spin—a phenomenon known as the Cheshire cat ...

A decade ago, the Large Hadron Collider, Earth's most powerful particle accelerator, proved the existence of an subatomic particle called the Higgs boson -- thought to be a fundamental building block ...

Physicists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) use AI to search for subatomic particle evidence. CERN ...

A portrait of nucleon-antinucleon bound state. Credit: Physical Review Letters (2024). DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.132.151901 The proximity in mass to 2m p is suggestive of nucleon-antinucleon bound ...

(Reuters) - Using an observatory under construction deep beneath the Mediterranean Sea near Sicily, scientists have detected a ghostly subatomic particle called a neutrino boasting record-breaking ...

The puzzling behaviour of a fundamental particle called a muon, which some scientists think could be a sign of new physics, might actually be explained by our current theories. That’s according to a ...
