To learn more about the nature of matter, energy, space, and time, physicists smash high-energy particles together in large ...

Penn physicists were among more than 13,000 researchers from 70 countries who shared the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental ...

Physicists from CERN working on Large Hadron Collider, came close to answering why there was more matter in the early ...

Scientists have discovered a new four-body quasi-particle, the quadruplon, in a 2D semiconductor. Using laser experiments and ...

Intriguing signs from CERN hint at a never-before-seen form of matter – one that could be the tiniest particle cluster ever detected. Top quarks, typically too short-lived to pair up, may have briefly ...

Scientists from CERN have discovered a signal that may indicate the existence of a new type of matter. The hypothetical ...

The detection of longitudinally polarized W boson production at the Large Hadron Collider is an important step towards ...

As if atoms weren’t already mind-blowingly small, never mind subatomic particles, CERN researchers in the CMS Collaboration were sifting through data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and ...

A new proposal makes the case that paraparticles — a new category of quantum particle — could be created in exotic materials.

Fermilab announced that one of its computing projects received the second-largest award and was the largest particle physics project granted supercomputer time from the DOE Office of Science INCITE ...

It is no heavier than 0.45 electron volts (eV) — less than one-millionth the mass of an electron, the next-lightest known ...
