The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...
The muon’s mysteries continue to leave physicists spellbound. Last year, an experiment suggested that the elementary particle had inexplicably strong magnetism, possibly breaking a decades-long streak ...
From its resting place outside Chicago, Illinois, a long-defunct experiment is threatening to throw the field of elementary particles off balance. Physicists have toiled for ten years to squeeze a ...
Several massive multimillion dollar experiments should soon reveal more about the nature of these ghostly particles ...
Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...
Quantum mechanics is both the most powerful theory physicists have ever devised and the most baffling. On the one hand, ...
Physicists working on the LHCb experiment have spotted an elusive and fleeting particle, a heavier and more charming cousin to the proton, that has been sought for decades ...
Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...
A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...
A new and surprising duality has been discovered in theoretical particle physics. The duality exists between two types of scattering processes that can occur in the proton collisions made in the Large ...
Scientists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have confirmed the existence of a massless particle, long theorized by physicist David Pines’ theory. This particle, known as the “demon,” ...
The hypothetical faster-than-light particle known as the tachyon may marry with the special theory of relativity, according to a team of physicists, making its existence more plausible. Tachyons are a ...
