The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the ...

Rice is also a hot spot for microplastics. A University of Queensland study found that for every half cup of rice, there are ...

There is growing awareness — and alarm — at news that human brains (and the rest of our bodies) contain microplastic ...

A clever method from Caltech researchers now makes it possible to unravel complex electron-lattice interactions, potentially transforming how we understand and design quantum and electronic materials.

Quick facts about particle physics. Number of known elementary particles: 61 The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons ...

A new review reveals that tire wear particles are a major source of toxic microplastics polluting rivers, lakes, and ...

Starlink already accounts for 40% of all the satellites ever launched, and each one releases harmful aluminum oxides when deorbited.

The particles that don’t have mass are always traveling at the speed of light, and they also all carry an intrinsic angular momentum as though they’re spinning like a top.

For CCC to work, the model assumes that all particles eventually decay into photons. No physicists think this is possible (not even Penrose), but who knows what the far-future Universe could cook up.

A startup called Gigablue claims to have reached a milestone by selling 200,000 carbon credits for its ocean-based carbon ...

All particles peak soon after cooking, but some have been found in kitchen and living room air up to 10 hours later, according to a study in the journal Building and Environment.

"Disturbing roosting migratory birds at night can result in mass deaths," says Bateman. "Disturbing breeding birds can result ...
