A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole ...
Another theory held that the forces between two particles falls off exponentially in direct relationship to the distance between two particles and that the factor by which it drops is not dependent on ...
After a decade of meticulous measurements, scientists announced Thursday that a fundamental particle -- the W boson -- has a significantly greater mass than theorized, shaking the foundations of our ...
The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle ...
What is meant, when an experiment anticipates less than a quarter of an event, and four are registered by the detector? That number discrepancy lies at the heart of a new conundrum of kaons: ...
A neutrino with almost unimaginable energy slammed into Earth in early 2023, carrying roughly 220 petaelectronvolts, far ...
After Higgs Boson: Physics’ Next Move to Understand the Universe It’s been more than a decade since the European Organization for Nuclear Research (known as CERN) discovered the Higgs Boson, using ...
“The theoretical framework we developed explains how quasiparticles emerge in systems with an extremely heavy impurity, ...
A shock measurement of the mass of a fundamental particle called the W boson ignited the physics world in April, as it appeared to flout the standard model of particle physics. Hundreds of papers have ...
In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, that distinction gets a bit murky.
The W boson, one of the tiniest, most elementary particles in the known universe is causing a big ruckus in the field of particle physics. According to the Standard Model, W bosons (together with ...
Elementary particle physics reflects the human quest to understand the basic building blocks of nature and the rules that govern the physical world. This quest has led not only to critical scientific ...
