Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

Two ghostlike particles, neutrinos and photons, are emerging as unlikely combatants in a quiet revolution in physics. New ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about long-standing neutrino anomalies. After many years of investigation, resea ...

The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion of the universe.

If ever spotted in the emptiness of space, according to theoretical physicist Eugeny Babichev of the University of ...

A new study takes the GHZ paradox, which describes how quantum theory can't be described by local realistic descriptions, to new heights.

To progress to the next level in understanding reality, we need to combine quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general ...

Bizarre particle gains or loses mass depending on direction it travels By Michael Irving December 11, 2024 Scientists have accidentally discovered a strange particle that has mass when it moves in one ...

On 7 November 2025, the Austrian Academy of Sciences inaugurated the Marietta Blau Institute for Particle Physics.

The geometry of space, where physical laws unfold, may also hold answers to some of the deepest questions in fundamental physics. The very structure of spacetime might underlie every interaction in ...

On Monday, the Society of Physics Students, or SPS, welcomed Helen Quinn — a renowned particle physicist — to deliver the Howard L. Schultz Sr. Price Lecture. During the talk, Quinn spoke on her ...

A unified theory – that explains the interactions in the standard model of particle physics from one common origin – has been ...
