The Theoretical Advanced Study Institute in Elementary Particle Physics (TASI) recently concluded its 40th year, bringing 65 students from around the world to Boulder to delve into the “Frontiers of ...

How many kinds of elementary particles should I say there are? In experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, physicists smash ...

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I have found in a new research project. The way that intense X-rays are ...

A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and future of particle physics research. Particle physicists have a reputation ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (MPQ), Garching, in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Randolf Pohl from the Institute for Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), ...

An unexpected behavior in a particle decay seems to disagree with the predictions of the Standard Model, despite its high reliability. It could betray the existence of still unknown forces ...

A new proposal makes the case that paraparticles — a new category of quantum particle — could be created in exotic materials. Wang was eager to develop the accidental discovery into a full theory of ...
