New model connects the origins of very high-energy neutrinos, ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays, and high-energy gamma rays with black-hole jets embedded in their environments. One of the biggest mysteries ...

The KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment has provided fresh insights into sterile neutrinos. Neutrinos ...

It’s three for the price of one. A trio of mysterious high-energy particles could all have the same source: active black holes embedded in galaxy clusters, researchers suggest January 22 in Nature ...

Every second, without you knowing it, thousands of billions of invisible particles pass through your body. These cosmic ...

From the early days of quantum mechanics, scientists have thought that all particles can be categorized into one of two groups — bosons or fermions — based on their behavior. “We determined that new ...

A new type of sensor that levitates dozens of glass microparticles could revolutionize the accuracy and efficiency of sensing ...

Physicists at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) have discovered a completely new type of quantum entanglement, the spooky phenomenon that binds particles across any distance. In particle collider ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. The Universe, at a fundamental level, is made up of just a few ...

Scientists have created “acoustic holograms” that can assemble matter into 3D objects, using just sound. The technique works with various types of particles and even living cells, allowing for a new ...

One of the biggest mysteries in astroparticle physics has been the origins of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays, very high-energy neutrinos, and high-energy gamma rays. Now, a new theoretical model reveals ...
