Muons are a key subatomic particle in the discovery of new physics, but after particle collision, they’re difficult to track.

Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover entirely new laws of nature. By ...

Physicists are rethinking how to detect elusive particles like neutrinos by combining existing technologies in unconventional ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: While science has a solid grasp on calculating drag and resistance on microscopic spherical objects, particles like dust, microplastics, and viruses ...

The tiny particles are effectively invisible to most instruments but may play a role in stratospheric chemistry ...

For decades, scientists have explored the enigmatic world of fundamental particles, uncovering the building blocks of our universe. But what if some of these particles, once deemed impossible, ...

Physicists have found evidence of X particles in the quark-gluon plasma produced in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, based near Geneva, ...

If you’re superstitious, a black cat in your path is bad luck, even if you keep your distance. Likewise, in quantum physics, particles can feel the influence of magnetic fields that they never come ...

Scientists have observed a unique particle that moves easily one way, yet resists at 90 degrees. These semi-Dirac fermions were observed using their energy signature in a topological metal. Particles ...

For thousands of years, humans have been observing and studying the Northern lights, aurora borealis, and their southern hemisphere counterpart, aurora australis. The simplest explanation for how ...
