Osaka University researchers show the relativistic contraction of an electric field produced by fast-moving charged particles, as predicted by Einstein’s theory, which can help improve radiation and…
A Different Type of Chaos Physicists from the University of California, Santa Barbara, the University of Maryland, and the University of Washington have solved a…
When odds are equal, particles paired up with others of the same kind more often than once thought. The protons and neutrons, which make up…
Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory experiments hone in on a never-before-measured region of strong force coupling, a quantity that supports theories accounting for 99% of the…
For the first time, researchers reveal the origin of neutrinos, elementary particles that reach our planet from the depths of the Universe. Highly energetic and…
A physics puzzle is resolved through a new duality. According to traditional thinking, distorting a flat space by bending it or stretching it is necessary…
A new analysis offers an innovative means to predict ‘cosmological signatures’ for models of dark matter. A method for predicting the composition of dark matter…
Berkeley Lab Researchers Record Successful Startup of LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Detector at Sanford Underground Research Facility An innovative and uniquely sensitive dark matter detector –…
Using Newton’s laws of physics, we can model the motions of planets in the Solar System quite accurately. However, in the early 1970s, scientists discovered…
Christoph Paus, the MIT physicist who co-led the effort to detect the particle, looks ahead to the next 10 years. July 4, 2022, marked 10…
The Large Hadron Collider is once again delivering proton collisions to experiments, this time at an unprecedented energy of 13.6 TeV, marking the start of…
Three never-before-seen particles have been observed by the international Large Hadron Collider beauty (LHCb) collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The discovery includes a…
Sterile neutrino, physics fundamentals among interpretations of anomalous results. New scientific results confirm an anomaly seen in previous experiments, which may point to an as-yet-unconfirmed…
Materials that contain the axial Higgs mode could serve as quantum sensors to evaluate other quantum systems and help answer persistent questions in particle physics….
A team of scientists at CERN led by MPQ physicist Masaki Hori discovered that a hybrid antimatter-matter atom behaves in an unexpected way when immersed…
The new facility, LCLS-II, will soon sharpen our view of how nature works on ultrasmall, ultrafast scales, impacting everything from quantum devices to clean energy….
The device hopes to answer the ultimate existential questions. The final piece of an all-new detector has completed the first leg of its journey toward…
As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, one of the questions I am most frequently asked is “When are you…
