Physicists know from previous experiments that what happens at the nuclear scale to protons and neutrons also affects their ...

More than a decade after its groundbreaking discovery, the Higgs boson continues to captivate the scientific community. This elusive particle, famously nicknamed the “God particle,” plays ... Continue ...

Theoretical physics is the development of mathematical formalisms and computational protocols for describing all aspects of objects found in the world around us and their interaction. This can ...

Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider tested whether top quarks, the most massive known elementary particles, comply with ...

Sheldon Glashow recalls the events surrounding a remarkable decade of model building and discovery between 1964 and 1974.

Because we haven't found anything yet, we've started to wonder if dark matter might be lighter or heavier than we thought.

These two properties of axions mean that they are exceptionally good at collapsing down to incredibly high densities, pulled ...

Experimental particle physicist Ian Shipsey, a remarkable leader and individual, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in ...

Using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a team of researchers recently tested whether top quarks also follow the special ...

ABSTRACT: We present a theoretical model for detecting axions from neutron stars in a QCD phase of quark matter. The axions would be produced from a quark-antiquark pair u u ¯ or d d ¯ , in loop(s) ...

In the first study of its kind at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the CMS collaboration has tested whether top quarks adhere ...

In the first study of its kind at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the CMS collaboration has tested whether top quarks adhere to Einstein’s special theory of relativity. Along with quantum mechanics, ...
