Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in physics: string theory. This rare particle—never seen before and predicted not ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

Physicist Archana Sharma and astrophysicist Geraint Lewis explore the mysteries of the universe, the Higgs boson, and modern physics in conversation with Marcus du Sautoy, presented by Vedanta.- Watch ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in equations rather than explained from first principles. A new proposal argues that ...
