Physicists are building detectors so sensitive that they may succeed in unraveling one of the greatest mysteries in modern physics: the true nature of dark matter.
Most of the universe is made of dark matter and dark energy, yet scientists still don’t know what either one is. New ultra-sensitive detectors are being built to spot incredibly rare particle ...
In 2023, a detector buried off the Mediterranean Sea spotted an impossibly powerful neutrino signal—tens of thousands of times more energetic than anything produced by humanity’s most powerful ...
Science funding cuts in the UK are expected to be a "devastasting blow" for physics research, affecting international ...
Dr. Stefan Schoppmann, a particle physicist at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), has received the ICFA Early Career ...
TPU researchers, as part of scientific collaboration, have established conditions under which self-igniting fuels ignite. The ...
The Pauli exclusion principle is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics and is essential for the structure ...
Data from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has revealed that particles retain spin signatures from the quantum vacuum.
A high-precision experiment is hunting for a forbidden particle flip that could expose new physics hiding in plain sight.
Physicists think a 2023 particle detection marks the first exploding black hole seen. If true, it rewrites our understanding of dark matter.
The particles have roughly half the diameter of the average virus, but being dense metallic spheres, they are more massive than most proteins in our body. The experimental setup was designed to test ...
