A Rice physics professor has proven the existence of particles that were long thought impossible. Kaden Hazzard and his former graduate student, Zhiyuan Wang, presented their findings in a Jan. 8 ...

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation and their interaction. The fundamental particles are summarised by the standard model. This includes leptons ...

The cores of galaxies may not be made of what scientists thought. New research suggests that they could hold giant […] The ...

Scientists suggest paraparticles, a quasiparticle class, potentially redefining physics by challenging the fermion and boson ...

A new perspective on the universe could emerge if superluminal observers, those who theoretically move faster than light, ...

Curious about what lies beyond? Join me for an enlightening exploration of the profound relationship between science and the ...

Experimental particle physics is the practical investigation ... when matter collides together at speeds close to that of light. The ALPHA Collaboration reports measurements of the hyperfine ...

The traditional dark matter hypothesis, that it's some form of cold, massive particle that hardly ever interacts with itself ...

Astrophysical bow shocks and other multiscale phenomena work like cosmic particle accelerators to launch electrons to ...

The cores of galaxies may not be made of what we thought, new research suggests — they could hold one giant, invisible star ...

LEDs could explain why gravity is weaker than the other fundamental forces of nature, and why neutrinos have such tiny ...

Scientists have come a step closer to understanding how collisionless shock waves -- found throughout the universe -- are able to accelerate particles to extreme speeds.
