Researchers suggest that dark matter might subtly color light red or blue as it passes through, revealing traces of its existence. Using a network-like model of particle connections, they argue that ...

Japanese physicists have revived Kelvin’s old idea of cosmic knots, showing how these tangled fields might explain why matter ...

In a first-of-its-kind experiment, scientists have recreated "cosmic fireballs" here on Earth in a particle accelerator.The ...

A new study suggests the Milky Way’s gamma-ray glow could be a dark matter signal shaped by ancient galactic mergers.

Deep under a mountain in Italy, researchers continue to push the boundaries of science with an experiment that could rewrite the Standard Model of Particle Physics.

The Standard Model is our best theory for how the universe operates, but there are some missing pieces that physicists are struggling to find. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...

Magnets of the Tevatron Collider at Fermilab, Illinois. A newly published analysis of data from the Tevatron, which shut down in 2011, shows an unexpectedly high mass for a particle called the W-boson ...

Sam Baron receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Hi Ishan! Thanks for your great question. Light can be described both as a wave and as a particle. There are two experiments in ...

Power functional theory is a new approach that makes it possible to describe precisely the dynamics of many-particle systems over time. Physicists at the University of Bayreuth are among the ...
